I love Thanksgiving! It is one of my very favorite holidays, probably because it is holiday centered entirely around family (and food) without the expectation of gifts. The colors of fall are so beautiful and warm. There is nothing quite like my mom’s stuffing or her pumpkin soup! And the cliche ritual of going around the table and saying what we are thankful for gets me teary-eyed every. single. year. Did I mention how much I love Thanksgiving? :)

In an attempt to honor Thanksgiving for the wonderful holiday it is (and not just jump from Halloween to Christmas), we’ve created a collection of creative Thanksgiving crafts for kids…with some of my favorite turkey crafts thrown in.
