Turkey Headband

Materials

•

Scissors

•

Brown paper bags

•

Cardboard (cereal box)

•

Glue stick

•

Colored construction paper

•

2 small white pom-poms

•

Black permanent marker

Instructions

1. From the brown paper bags, cut a circle 3½ inches in diameter (pattern provided

if needed) for the turkey's head. Next, cut a 3 inch wide band to fit around your

head.

2. From the cardboard, cut a strip 5 inches by 1½ inches to use for a neck. Fold it

three times accordion style, then glue one end to the back of the paper circle.

3. For a beak, use the pattern provided or fold yellow construction paper and cut out

a small double triangle (1½ inches along the fold). Cut a rounded L (pattern

provided if needed) from red paper for the turkey's wattle.

4. To create eyes, use the pattern provided or draw a black circle on 2 small white

pom-poms with the marker. Glue the eyes, wattle and one side of the beak to the

head. Let them dry. Then, glue the loose end of the neck to the center of the

headband.

5. Now, wrap the headband around your head (you might need help) and mark

where the ends overlap, then remove the band and glue the ends. Finally, glue

on construction paper feathers and wings (use patterns if needed).
