Do you have some older grandchildren that you are wondering how you can entertain them on Thanksgiving Day? You might want to consider printing up some of these Thanksgiving paper crafts for them to make.

Christopher Bonnette has 2 turkey and 2 Pilgrim/Native American Indian paper crafts on his Macula website.  (When you log on, click on Downloads in his navigation on the left-hand side and then on Paper Craft.  Scroll across the gallery on the top of the page to find the Thanksgiving crafts.)

When you click on an image in the gallery, it brings up the pattern and instructions in the main part of your browser window.

Making these paper crafts takes skill with scissors and finger dexterity to fold and glue the paper so I don’t think that little grandchildren would be able to make them — unless they had lots of help from grandma.  However, I think the older ones could easily make these.  I plan on printing up a slew of them for after dinner activities.

You might want to bookmark this site because he also has a cute leprechaun, Easter bunny, Frankenstein, Santa, Christmas elves, and pirate.
