Some kids choose to disguise a turkey like their favorite superhero, while others hide them under a Santa suit. One child might decide to use leaves to turn a turkey into a peacock instead, while another uses pom-poms to hide their turkey behind a gumball machine. The possibilities for creative disguises are endless with this craft project! So grab your glue gun and some cotton balls because it’s time to save a turkey!
