40 Turkey Crafts for Thanksgiving

Turkey crafts and Activities for kids.

Thanksgiving is a great time to gather the kids together and create.  I complied some of my favorite Thanksgiving ideas from around the web into one huge resource.  Many of these ideas are simple to make; use materials that you probably have in your cupboards and my favorite part…take only a few minutes to set up.  Perfect for squeezing in a little creating between basting the turkey, making the perfect pumpkin pie and creating that delicious praline sweet potato casserole.
