Turkey Finger Painting

Have sensory fun, learn about colours and shapes and improve fine motor skills and coordination with this finger painting Thanksgiving Turkey Activity. Finger painting is a fun way to decorate a homemade Thanksgiving card for family or friends.

For this activity:

If you’re worried about your kid making too much mess, use paint sticks that won’t drip everywhere.
Start with the outer-circle of feathers for the turkey, doing fingerprints in a semicircle.
Next, do an outer-ring of yellow fingerprints inside the red.
Finish with a thumb print of brown in the centre.
When the paint is dry, draw in the legs, beak and eyes.
This is a great keepsake for Thanksgiving. The finger painting can be used to create name cards for the Thanksgiving dining table.
