fall-crafts

Get crafty this Thanksgiving! If your creative kiddo is looking for a holiday-themed art activity, check out this easy finger paint project idea for preschoolers.

Arts and Crafts Materials You’ll Need

  • 8×10-inch or larger card stock paper or poster board paper
  • Fall colors of finger paint- orange, brown, red and yellow
  • Paper plates or scrap cardboard
  • Paintbrushes
  • Clear-drying school glue
  • Fall leaves

How-To Art-Making Steps

  1. Pour the paint into separate puddles on the paper plates or the scrap cardboard.
  2. Ask your child to open their hand completely.
  3. Help your child to paint the palm side of their hand and fingers.
  4. Have your child put their four fingers together to create a turkey shape. The thumb will turn into the turkey’s head and neck, the palm will make up the body and the fingers are the feathers.
  5. Press your child’s hand down onto the paper.
  6. Add extra color with more paint. Your child can dip their fingers into other paint colors and dot dabs onto the turkey or the rest of the paper.
  7. Your child can use a brush or their fingers to add a face to the turkey.
  8. Accent the art and add texture with the fall leaves. Glue the leaves onto the turkey as-is or cut them into pieces first.
