Turkeys

Desmond has been pretty bummed about Halloween being over. So I thought I'd lift his spirits and get him excited about the next holiday.

Except the only problem with that is that the next holiday is Thanksgiving.

Thanksgiving is just not as cool as Halloween. And Christmas is still way too far away to get all pumped up about.  .....Although all stores and retailers would completely disagree. Did I tell you I saw a Christmas commercial on Halloween?? That's just crazy! Let's take it one holiday at a time!

SO to get into the Thanksgiving spirit I managed to rack my brain for ideas and came up with this cool project (and by cool, I mean super easy and quick):


 

Dez enjoyed his project and did a great job too! The only thing I don't like is that you can't see his little handprint underneath the bits of construction paper. We'll have to do the traditional paint on hand then stamp on paper turkey later this week. (Lord, help me)

Do you have any other cute ideas for Thanksgiving??
