Thanksgiving Crafts for the Kids’ Table

Nov12

by Cindy Hopper

Let your children color their way to a festive Thanksgiving table. Grab some crayons and colored pencils, print off the downloads and your kids can decorate their own table.

Start with a colorful turkey for the centerpiece.

Print two turkeys, color and cut-out. On the backs of the turkeys, place glue stick at top of each wing only. Stick the two turkeys together. Once turkey is dry place it over a small drinking cup.

Thanksgiving Crayon Holder Download

This crayon holder is a quick and simple way to keep crayons together.  Print download on cardstock, cut on solid lines, fold on dotted lines. Fold bottom up and the tabs to the back. Glue tabs with glue stick.

Thanksgiving Coloring Page Download

Don’t forget the coloring sheet to be used as a place mat. Use butcher paper for the table cloth and the kids have even more room for coloring.

    This is such a great idea, even for kids who sit at the adult table, like mine do. That way they will be entertained while the rest of the table talks and talks and talks. Printing them out right now!

    my Mom was a big fan of this – usually she skipped the printouts (she wasn’t organized enough to get to it, and we were never big fans anyway) and used a nice disposable tablecloth – the kind made of heavy paper that feels like cloth. It was also great for birthday parties – whoever arrived early sat at the table and decorated their spot while waiting for everyone to arrive.

    Hi there- I used your printables for a service activity for our in home preschool. My preschool kids were sent home with a copy of the place mat and a list of service activities, with instructions to color in one acorn or leaf each time they do service. Thanks for the great activity! We’ll be using the rest of the printables on Thanksgiving day.

    Thanks so much for these! They are adorable, and exactly what I was looking for – my kids will LOVE them! I also wanted to let you know that I linked to this post from my piano studio website. We’re using the place mat as a practice tracker this week!
