“So cute…..making it for my grandson who likes little things.”
A sleepy little turkey who naps in a cosy barn bed inside a matchbox! Kids cut, fold and glue a tiny box, tuck the turkey in under an autumn patchwork quilt and slide out the bed to say "Gobble, good morning!". A sweet Thanksgiving kids' table activity with a little "I'm thankful for you!" note to give away.
What's Included
- 2 printable pages, full colour: 1 template page + 1 illustrated how-to page
- 2 PDFs: A4 and US Letter (same craft, 300 dpi)
- Craft pieces: matchbox cover with a name label (little turkey hugging a pumpkin pie with a squirrel friend, red barn, cornucopia and autumn trees), orange and brown striped sides, bed tray with maple leaf and pumpkin wallpaper, red barn headboard with a leaf garland, barn-door footboard with pumpkins, flip turkey in a plaid nightcap (sleepy front + awake back), autumn patchwork blanket pocket, leaf-print pillow, sleepy squirrel, 3 little toys (pumpkin pie, corn cob, acorn) and a leaf "psst... I'm thankful for you!" note
How It Works
Finished box: about 5.4 x 7.2 cm, perfect as a place-card gift on the Thanksgiving table. A fun screen-free fall activity for ages 5+, November classrooms, the kids' table, Friendsgiving, family gatherings and cosy autumn days.
- Print on 200-250 gsm cardstock at 100 % / Actual size (not "fit to page")
- Cut out the pieces and score the dashed lines
- Glue the pillow and blanket pocket on the flat tray, then fold up the bed
- Fold the cover into a tube and slide the bed in
- Tuck the turkey into the blanket pocket, slide a toy into its wings (a grown-up cuts the small wing slit), flip it over for good morning!
