Turkey Suncatchers for Thanksgiving

I wanted to do an easy but slightly unique craft with my son for Thanksgiving so I came up with the idea of making turkey suncatchers!

All you need is a turkey coloring sheet (feel free to use mine!), crayons and baby oil!  Also recommended: cotton balls and paper towels.

This is perfect activity to do with your toddler because they don’t have to stay in the lines!  Just print out your turkey outline and let them color away.  After they are done coloring, cut out your turkeys for step two.

I put the cut outs on a paper towel to keep my table clean.  Next pour a little baby oil on a cotton ball or napkin.

Rub the baby oil all over the paper, making sure it soaks in all over.  This will make the paper slightly transparent so the sun can peek through it!

Hang up your turkeys in the window to catch the sun and enjoy!
