Here's a project kids will be happy to lend a hand with -- crafting a gobblin' puppet from a garden glove.

- Gardening glove
- Colored felt

- Paint or liquid embroidery (available at craft stores)
- Googly eyes
- Instructions
-
-
Use the gardening glove for the bird's body. Cut feathers out of felt (make them a bit wider than the glove fingers) and fringe the edges. Now, glue one to each glove finger.
-
Next, cut a wing shape out of felt and glue it to the palm of the glove. Use paint or liquid embroidery to enhance the plumage.
-
To make the turkey's beak, cut out a pair of small felt triangles and glue them to opposite sides of the thumb tip.
-
For the wattle, cut a 2-inch-long hourglass shape out of red felt. Drape the wattle over the base of the beak and glue it in place. Glue on googly eyes.
-
To use the turkey puppet as a table decoration, stuff newspaper into the glove and roll up the cuff.
