Turkey Playdough

I've dedicated our November playdough to the American Thanksgiving holiday coming up later this month.
Gobble-gobble!

I simply created some brown playdough (see my sidebar for the recipe) and gathered some feathers and googly eyes together in a basket.



James thought this turkey making business was hilarious!!He named his turkey "Old Featherhead". :0)


~Thank you for your comments!~

  6. I had this same exact idea for November - just haven't gotten around to executing it yet. :) He's so cute, I think I'll make some time to get the playdough made today.

  11. Old Featherhead - makes me smile! I can also imagine Savvy thinking this was hilarious too.

    We have oodles of brown play doh - so this would be a sweet way to put it to good use. Playing with play doh is always more fun when you add googly eyes and feathers.

  12. So cute! I just found a recipe for chocolate playdoh and had no idea what to use brown playdoh for (but wanted to make it because well, it's chocolate)....now I know. Thank you for the fabulous ideas!!

  13. Adorable as can be! I still haven't made my November playdough yet (ack!), but Finn really enjoyed having googly eyes (and pipe cleaners) last month, so the feathers are a GREAT idea.
