Teach your toddler about hands with this easy turkey handprint hunt game!

There are some fun Thanksgiving turkey hunt games going around and that sounds like a lot of fun. My daughter, Coral was 2 years old when we made those, she was learning about body parts. She was excited when she found out that she could make turkeys with her handprints.

Items needed:

Paint
Paintbrush
Glue
Color papers
Cardstock paper
Scissor

Instructions:

Apply paints on your child’s hands with a foam paintbrush and press the hand onto a piece of construction paper in colors of your child’s choice. Do as many handprints as you’d like. We did 11 handprints.
Let the paint dry.
Cut around the hands and cut the cardstock papers in any size to fit the hands.
OPTIONAL: Have your kid color the cardstock papers and write on the top what they are THANKFUL for.
Glue the handprints onto the cardstock papers.
Leave them out to dry.
Once they’re dry, hide the handprints around the house.
Have your child hunt for their turkey handprints!

You could add faces/legs to the handprints so they’d look more like turkeys. GOBBLE GOBBLE!

(Excuse my messy handwriting.)

We wrote that we are thankful for food, love, family, and you!

I think my favorite handprints have to be the ones that say Thankful for Family & Happy Turkey Day!

You can either do it indoors or outdoors. Since I live in Florida, we do it outside in the backyard. I hide the cards around the backyard and have Coral hunt for her handprints. It is a fun Thanksgiving turkey handprint hunt game!

**Another idea of what to do with these cards: You could use a hole puncher and punch a hole in the top of all cards. Put a string through those and display as a Thankful garland! I LOVE doing garlands! I made a paper bat garland for Halloween and a marbled salt dough ball garland for Coral’s bedroom.
