Now I know I just published our Turkeys Go On Strike but this is a totally fun, totally at home do-able little coloring project that is perfect for classrooms or at home art time! I am sure you have heard of it since so many classrooms participate but if not, I have created you a template to play along and it’s super easy. Additionally, I asked some blogger friends of mine if they wanted to challenge their kids to create some turkeys in disguise at their own houses, so if you scroll down you can continue on and go visit all the turkeys the kids came up with.
Turkeys in Disguise

My kids mainly chose to COLOR their turkeys, but you can also get involved with doing 3D options and using feathers, leaves, candy wrappers, cotton balls or whatever you can come up with. After all, you ARE hiding a turkey.
Here are ours: I made a butterfly and Charlotte and Phoenyx worked together to create a “Big Hero Six
