    Pinecone Turkey Craft for Kids

    Published: Jan 29, 2021 by Heidi. This post may contain affiliate links 14 Comments

    It's that time again. I'm guest posting on Juggling Act Mama! Today I'm sharing a quick and easy Pinecone Turkey Craft for Kids.

    Aren't they cute?  The original was created by Boo when she was in kindergarten.  Since all of the feathers have definite color patterns, I'm sure her wise teacher used it as a fun way to practice patterns.

    If you are wondering why colors of the "feathers" are nothing like the colors of a real turkey, you have probably never tried to talk a little girl out of using her favorite colors!  It's definitely a battle I know is absolutely useless.  The colors have actually grown on me.  (Who says a turkey can't dress up like a peacock?)

    This craft is perfect for preschool and kindergarten, but I'm a grown up, and I enjoyed it, so your older kids might like it, too.  (You're never too old to string beads, right?)

    To get the full tutorial, head on over to Juggling Act Mama by clicking on the image below:

        Thanks, Alisha. I hope you have fun with it. My kids are always collecting pine cones. It's nice to find something to do with them.
