Turkey: Toilet paper tube crafts

March 29, 2016 By Jamie Dorobek 5 Comments

T is for turkey!

Turkey toilet paper roll craft

The toilet paper roll turkey is pretty simple:

  • 1 toilet paper roll
  • Scissors
  • Single hole punch
  • Pencil
  • Sharpie marker
  • Glue
  • White scrap paper
  • Cereal box

 

First, cut your toilet paper tube in half with a pair of scissors. Then grab the empty cereal box and it’s time to make the turkey’s head, gobble, and feathers! The turkey head is really easy, doodle on an oval with a squiggle line gobble and a giant black beak. Cut it out and Bam! Done. Use the hole punch to make 2 white eyes with black pupils and glue them to the head. Now, for the feathers. Use your pencil to draw a 4in diameter circle. Then draw a line through the center of it, you only need a semi circle! Now, zig zag the top part of your circle and add black lines to represent feathers. To attach the feathers to the body, set the feathers on the turkey body and use a pencil to mark where the slits will be cut so that the feathers can fit onto the tube.

Attach the feathers to the turkey body and give your little turkey some webbed feet! Obviously, this would be a fun craft for Thanksgiving too! Don’t mind that I’m posting about it at the end of March 🙂

Here are the other animal toilet paper roll crafts for kids in the series:

  • A is for anteater
  • B is for beaver
  • C is for cat
  • D is for dog
  • E is for elephant
  • F is for fish
  • G is for giraffe
  • H is for horse
  • I is for iguana
  • J is for jellyfish

  • L is for llama
  • M is for mouse
  • N is fo Numbat
  • O is for Octopus
  • P is for pig

And now for a few fun facts about turkeys:

  1. Turkeys form strong bonds with their families and flock mates and travel long distances as a group.
  2. Wild turkeys sleep in trees to keep away from predators!
  3. A male turkey is called a tom or a gobbler, a female turkey a hen, and a baby turkey a poult or chick.

Next Tuesday I’ll have a letter T toilet paper tube creature to share with y’all!

    Cute! I think I will try this with my preschoolers, but let them use pretty colored feathers. The brighter, the better for them!
