Thankful Turkey

Every year for the whole month of November we have a "Thankful Turkey" hanging up in our house. It's tradition. Basically we hang a turkey up and add feathers to it that say what we are thankful for. It is a simple thing to do but it has a big impact. I don't even make it cutesy. I just use a coloring page template and cut feathers out of paper. That is it!   




This is the turkey we use every year. But there are tons of free templates out there. Or you could draw your own if you are so inclined!



Hang that bad boy up with scotch tape- or something cuter. HA!



The feathers and a marker. That is about it! I cut the feathers out free hand but there are lots of templates too. They can be printed on colored paper and cut out and bingo bango they are done.


We always end up with some of the most ridiculous things on there. The kids put up farts, candy and minecraft. Mostly we end up with really sweet things though. I need to figure out a way to keep this feeling all year long. The feelings of gratitude are awesome!
