When I showed my daughter a collection of great Thanksgiving crafts for kids that I have recently published, she said: “Mom, why won’t we make a turkey with all the fruits you have just bought! You can then put it on your blog”. I laughed for quite a while and then I told her that we would make it, of course. I let her chose the fruits. She wanted to arrange them in a rainbow, well, we were close:) She helped me to mount all the fruits on skewers and I inserted them in the pear. We finished with the candy eyes (she ate a few along the way… ), made the snood, the wattle and our fruity Thanksgiving turkey was ready!
Ingredients
- 4 blackberries
- 5 raspberries
- 4 grapes
- 1-2 slices of orange
- 1-2 slices of grapefruit
- 1 slice of pineapple
- 1 pear
- 2 candy eyeballs
- 1 chocolate biscuit stick
- skewers
Supplies I used
Did you know that young domestic turkeys readily fly short distances, perch and roost. These behaviors become less frequent as the birds mature, but adults will readily climb on objects such as bales of straw.
