Peg Doll Turkeys

November 22, 2018 · by theartgardenblog

Happy Thanksgiving, my friends!

We made some cute little turkeys this week with some wooden peg dolls and just a few simple materials. We love using these pegs for some fun, imaginary play like we did for our Milk Carton Bunny Habitat.

Step 1: Paint your wooden pegs! Let dry.

Step 3: Hot glue a triangle felt beak on and feathers to the back of the peg.

And that’s it!
