Your child has probably traced his or her little hand on a piece of paper in school and then colored it in to make a turkey picture. You can use the same idea to make fun Thanksgiving Turkey Cookies for kids.
Preparation
- Sugar cookie dough
- Popsicle stick
- Cookie sheet and non-stick cooking spray
- White frosting
- Candy Corns
- M&Ms
- Assorted candies to decorate the turkey cookie
Steps
- Roll out your favorite prepared sugar cookie dough on a floured surface.
- Have your child put their hand on the dough.
- Have them trace around their hand with a Popsicle stick. The parent can use a knife to cut the shape out a bit more if need be.
- Place the dough hand(s) on a cookie sheet and bake.
- When the cookies are cool, use frosting and candy to decorate the cookies so they look like turkeys.
- Decorate the cookie thumb as the turkey's head. Use red-hot candies to make his wattle. Make the cookie fingers his feathers and use candy corns and M&Ms to brighten them up. Be creative!
