Paint each child's palm and thumb with brown paint, then paint the other four fingers with whatever color they choose -these are the feathers. Place their hand paint down on the white sheet of paper that has this poem already printed on it: This isn't just a turkey As anyone can see This very special turkey Was made by hand by me! Have them sign the bottom. The next day, they can add the turkey's features with crayons and choose a color of construction paper to mount it on. Cute gift for the parents!

Bus Stop Backpack Game This is a great idea to keep children busy during down times (bus stop, bus duty, bus ride home, etc.). -Find a plain, flat spot on the backpack and create a tic-tac-toe board using velcro and any inexpensive plastic toy pieces (or make your own game pieces from craft foam). Draw the tic-tac-toe board on the backpack with a permanent marker. Then, attach velcro in each square of the board. Last, attach the other side of velcro to each game piece and put them on the board. Make sure you have five of each game piece. The game pieces can be nicely stored in one of the outside pockets of the backpack. See more games for kids |
