You need:
Instructions:
Have mom (and dad) place their hand on a piece of red card stock.
Trace around their hand and cut out.
Note: If doing this as a class project, send home a note to
parents to trace their hand on white paper and send back to school
with their child. When the papers are returned, lay a piece of red
card stock under the white paper and use a pen or pencil to trace the
hand, the indents from the pen will show where to cut on the red
paper. Alternatively, you can send home a sheet of red card stock with
each child.
Trace the hands of each child in the family onto
different colors of card stock. Cut out. Starting with the largest
hands, layer smallest on top of largest, glue together. Cut out a
plump circle for the body and an oval for the head from brown card
stock. Glue on top of the smallest hand. Cut out a small red heart for
the gobbler and orange triangle for the beak, glue in place. Glue on
wiggle eyes.
Print out the phrases below using Notepad, Word, Wordpad or similar
word processing program, changing the name of the children and year if
needed:

paper and the second one to the bottom, or just use the bottom poem if
you like.
