Paper Bag Turkey Fun Thanksgiving Kids Craft

Share this post

Little Lady and I are crafting buddies. She is a 3 year old budding crafter and blogger. She loves to help with every project and post I create, you'll see photos of her here and there "helping".  We have the most fun working on kid friendly projects where she can get her hands dirty....safely.
Last year I shared Halloween and Thanksgiving crafts the 2 of us did together. She loved, I mean loved, that I blogged about her creations. You can see those 2 posts by clicking on the photos below.

This year we created a simple {mini} Paper Bag Turkey.
Paper Bag Turkey. Fun and easy craft to do with kids. #thanksgiving
I picked up these little paper bags in the Dollar Spot at Target earlier this year. They were 50% off, how could I pass them up?

Other supplies I used:
Cardstock, patterned and solid
2 Buttons
Glue

I cut out feathers in varying sizes and Little Lady and I glued them to a small strip of card stock. It was easier for her this way, when she was done I glued the whole strip to the back of the paper bag.

We added eyes, feet, a beak, and some chevron yellow to the body.

These make for cute hand puppets, or a little fall decoration.

Do you craft with your kids? What have you created lately?

Thanks for visiting!

  1. What a great idea! My little family has a Gratitude Party every year and this little craft would be perfect! Thank you for sharing! I am so excited to do this with my kiddos! PINNED!

  2. This is adorable, and I know my daughters will love it! This will give them something to do while everyone's watching football on Thanksgiving.

  3. That's so cute, Sarah! I miss those days with my kids, but I'm pretty sure I have a very similar turkey in the Thanksgiving Rubbermaid container. I love getting out all of the things they've made over the years - such treasures! So be sure to put a date on it somewhere!

  4. Very cute! I loved making crafts with the boys when they were younger. I only wish I blogged back then so I would have our projects documented!
