Are you ready to get your Thanksgiving themed crafting on? Gather up your glue, scissors, construction paper and markers and get ready to make something amazing with your kids.

When you think of Thanksgiving do you have visions of pumpkins, turkeys, corn, Pilgrims and cornucopias? I tried to find a variety of ideas and projects that incorporate one or two of the most popular Thanksgiving themes and symbols.

Don't forget to scroll down to the bottom of this post where you can find a FREE Gratitude Game printable as well as the instructions on how to play!

Five Fun Thanksgiving Themed Crafts for Kids


1. Yarn Pumpkin Craft


from One Little Project

Glue + yarn + balloons = cutest pumpkin craft ever! What a great project for your older tween/teen children. This is an excelled tutorial from One Little Project that I'm sure you will love. Just imagine a garland of these colorful yarn pumpkins strung across your mantel or set them on your table for a festive table scape for Thanksgiving dinner!

2. Thanksgiving "Handy" Wreath


from Education.com

Each child could make their very own wreath or you could make a mixed size handy wreath that uses everyone's hand. Make sure to write what you are thankful for on your paper hand before assembling them into a wreath. I love Education.com - check out my previous post about their wonderful worksheets here!

3. Indian Corn Craft


from Fantastic Fun and Learning.com

Not only does this blog contain this cool Indian corn craft but a link to resources to learn about Indian corn. What a great fall art project and history lesson wrapped into one. You just need simple household supplies to make this project. Love it!

4. Felt Pumpkin Treat Bag


from Hello Wonderful

5. Button Cornucopia


from The Pinterest Parent.com

When I was little my grandma has a button box which was just a tin box filled with buttons she had collected over many years. I loved to sort through the buttons and look at each one. This craft reminded me of her button box and how much fun it is to find cool colorful buttons. Your child is sure to have a blast looking for the right button to fill their cornucopia with.

Gratitude Game Printable

This is the perfect game to play during your Thanksgiving dinner while everyone is gathered around the table. The game is simple to play and all you need is a bag of M & M's and the Gratitude Game printable. To play start have one person pick one M & M from the bag and match the color of the candy with the colored circle on the Gratitude Game printable. The person then follows the prompts on the printable to say what or who they are thankful for. After they are done pass the bag of M & M's to the next person and continue to play as many rounds as you want and enjoy hearing what everyone is thankful for!

  2. Great creative ideas. I didn’t understand a little how to make Yarn Pumpkin Craft. By the way, I will also share the autumn worksheets from mathematics that we used for classes in kindergarten https://wunderkiddy.com/en/material/counting-leaves here you can print.
