How to Make the Printable Cut out Turkey
1. Start by printing out the template (template is at the bottom of the post).
2. Trace around colored cardstock for the feathers and the body shapes.
You’ll also want to trace around orange for the beak and feet and red for the snood.
We made 3 feathers of each color but you can also make them different colors too.
3. Start by gluing the feathers down. We glued them in a pattern order.
4. Glue on the body and then the head on top.
Add googly eyes. If you don’t have googly eyes you can also use the eyes included on the template.
5. Glue on the beak and snood.
6. Glue on the feet.
