I was inspired to make these turkeys with my preschooler after seeing this pinterest pin.  The crafter did such a nice job painting the turkey and I loved seeing how the shape of the cardboard roll was transformed using simple cuts and slits. 

Materials Needed:


How to Make Cardboard Roll Turkeys:

1.   Cut slits around one end of your toilet roll to create feathers.  Bend the flaps out and cut several of them off to create a nice semi-circle of feathers.

2.  Cut out a turkey head shape to match the body.

3.  Decorate your turkey bodies and heads.

4.  Cut out corresponding slits in the body and head pieces so that they slide together.
