Little Monkey’s Thanksgiving Craft

In line with the “tradition” we have started a few months ago, we made a new trivet for Thanksgiving. Here is the one from Grandparents Day and the one from Halloween.

This week we worked on Thanksgiving trivets. Little Monkey did a great job and I think they turned out cute. They are all different but all cute in their own way. We plan to take them to the beach house for Thanksgiving to use during the big feast and then each family will get to take one home as a keepsake.

We started out by painting his hand and then practicing a few times on paper.

Then we moved on to making one hand print on the tile and then additional ones on the paper.

I even placed two hand print turkeys on the paper. We then finished up the detail work after the paint had dried. Amy even helped with the writing of the words (She has nicer handwriting than I do!).  Here is a picture of them before they were clear coated. We actually ran out of tiles, so we will be doing this activity again to make sure we have enough for everyone!
