Make a fun turkey puppet to celebrate Thanksgiving! Once you make it, you can put on a puppet show for your family.
A 5–10 minutes craft for ages 3–7, using supplies you likely already have — Scissors, Markers, and Construction Paper.
GlueStick supports kids from setup to cleanup. After they choose a project, we guide them through gathering the supplies, making it, and cleaning up when they're done. We'll even help them share it safely with trusted family and friends.
Ad-free and kid-safe library — designed by a mom who wants kids to explore and create independently.
Create a free GlueStick account to track supplies and see if you have what you need at a glance. Leave your kids tips about where supplies are stored in your household so they can set up and clean up their creative spaces independently.
1. Ask an adult to help you download the turkey craft template and print it. 2. Choose the size that works for your hand and print it out on cardstock. 3. Ask an adult to help you cut out the eyes for your turkey. 4. Choose colors of construction paper and use the feather template as a guide to cut out 3 feathers. 5. Cut the beak from a scrap of yellow construction paper using the template. 6. Use brown paper to create the band for the puppet.
