"Hi, I'm Pam on behalf of Expert Village and today I'm going to show you different art projects for kids. Okay, now we're going to learn how to make a hand print turkey. Kids are going to love this because you're going to get them messy. The first thing you want to do is you want to take brown paint, paint the palm of the child's hand and their thumb. The thumb is going to be the neck and the head and of course the palm is the body. Then you can do your other four fingers any colors that you want. You can do them, just bright colors. I chose yellow, blue, like I said kids are going to love this because you're getting them messy. I'll do orange, it's quick, it's easy and kids love it, and we'll do green. Now what you're going to do is take a piece of paper, you can have white paper, black paper, brown paper, any color paper you want, take their hand and press it onto the paper and pull it off. Now there's your turkey with the feathers. Then what you can do is if your kid is old enough like pre-school age, they can take a black marker, draw on some legs, a nose, a mouth, anything they want, and there's their very own turkey."
