I've seen so many fun turkey crafts for Thanksgiving. Today, I'm sharing a kids craft that is great for toddlers and elementary aged kids to help them work on counting and sorting colors.

How to Make a Colorful Glove Turkey

Supplies:

Latex glove
Froot Loops
Cheerios
Red felt and orange paper for facial embellishments (pre-cut)
Googly eyes
Glue (not pictured)
Hole punch (not pictured)
Scissors (not pictured)

Directions:

1. Sort the Froot Loops by color.

2. Fill each finger of the glove with different colors of Froot Loops.

3. Fill palm of glove with Cheerios.

4. Tie knot in bottom of glove.

5. Glue facial embellishments to front of glove.

6. Using pre-cut 2" scalloped circle for feet, punch hole in center and cut slit from hole to edge (half circle). Cut triangle piece from circle on opposite side of slit.

7. Slide feet piece onto bottom of glove (hole in center fits over knot).

Use the cute turkey as a decoration or save for a quick snack later!

The colorful glove turkey would make a great kitchen project at Preschool or would be fun place settings at a kids' Thanksgiving table.
