Colored craft paper
Pencil

Craft glue
Craft feathers
Googly eyes
Popsicle sticks
Instructions
First of all, select colored craft papers for the turkey. I’m using grey craft paper for the body, orange for the beak and legs; and red for the wattle. Trace and cut out the patterns from the provided template.
Attach the wattle on the head part of the turkey body, cut out and attach the legs on the bottom side.
Attach the beak on the top side of the wattle, by overlapping the top end of the wattle a little. Also attach the googly eyes.
Flip the paper turkey to its wrong side. Grab some colored craft feathers and attach them on the back side of the paper turkey, making sure that the feathers are visible from the front side of the turkey.
Mix and match different colored craft feathers to make a fun pattern.
Take the wing cutouts of the turkey.
Attach the wing cutouts on both sides of the turkey body part.
Now attach the paper turkey on a popsicle stick to complete the turkey puppet.
