Thanksgiving is just around the corner, and what better way to celebrate than with a fun and creative craft that will leave everyone in awe? If you're looking for a simple yet impressive project to do with your little ones, then you've come to the right place. In this article, we'll guide you through 4 easy steps to create a turkey in disguise craft that will amaze everyone. Use real leaves or grab our Turkey Leaf Craft Packet with all the patterns for a simple and quick turkey masterpiece. So, gather your materials, put on your thinking cap, and let's create a turkey masterpiece for your bulletin board that will have everyone talking.


First and foremost, you'll need a medium-sized paper plate as the base for your turkey creation. This will serve as the canvas for your masterpiece, so make sure it's sturdy enough to withstand the weight of the decorative elements. If you don't have a paper plate, any flat and round object, like a piece of cardboard or a circular cutout, will work just fine.




Next, you'll need some colorful leaves (silk, real, paper, etc.). Choose a variety of leaves or a bunch of the same kind to create a more vibrant and multidimensional look. Have your turkey body ready and glue your leaves carefully to the back of the turkey’s body to create a beautiful plumage that will truly impress.



With all these materials in hand, you're now ready to move on to the next step and choose a disguise theme for your turkey. Get ready to dive into the realm of imagination and creativity as you consider all the wonderful possibilities. Something as simple as a hat can add character and personality to your turkey. The leaves and disguise will make your turkey truly one-of-a-kind.




Finally, give your turkey a name and write a Turkey Tale. Writing about your turkey helps to bring your creation to life. Think about the character and personality you have infused into your turkey's disguise, and write a tale that reflects its unique qualities.
