Preschool Turkey Craft

This shape turkey was a very simple and easy set up. 

Preschool cut out shapes are very easy to make and can be made with none other than construction paper. 

Yes, that is right. 

I only used construction paper for this simple preschool turkey theme craft with shapes activity. 

Here are the steps I took to put this simple turkey template together: 

• Think about what shapes you can use to create a simple turkey out of construction paper. 

• For example: I thought of rectangle for the legs. I also thought of triangle for the beak..

• A turkey can be made out of shapes with construction paper (no doubt.)

• Then, your LO can either glue the pieces together or not. They can just place them together without glue.
