Turkey Disguise Ideas: School Project Inspiration

November 3, 2022 by Leandrea Voskanian


As a parent we find ourselves helping our little learners with some crazy homework.  One project that many families will complete around Thanksgiving time relates to Turkey Disguise Ideas.  As a parent of a kindergarten student last year my initial thought was “You want us to WHAT?!?!”  Why in the world do turkey need to be dressed up?

The reason is a simple story titled Turkey Trouble.  “Turkey is in trouble. Bad trouble. The kind of trouble where it’s almost Thanksgiving . . . and you’re the maincourse. But Turkey has an idea–what if he doesn’t look like a turkey? What if he looks like another animal instead?  After many hilarious attempts, Turkey comes up with the perfect disguise to make this Thanksgiving the best ever!” YEP

If your homework is to disguise a turkey here is a ton of inspiration! Your turkey won't be recognizable when you are done.

I knew that I wanted to write a post about turkey costumes.  I knew I wasn’t the only parent hoping I could get inspiration from the internet, so I took photos of some of the turkeys in disguise while I was at the school one day.  A few of the turkeys in this post are ones that my friend’s children completed, and one is from a reader (thank you Deniece).

Last year we created a Pirate Turkey as a family and it was a very fun project.

Deniece emailed one of the most hoot-iful turkey projects to date. I love the wise owl her family made…and also love that she sent in the steps in their crafting process.  You would not even know that owl started out as a piece of paper once upon a time!  My girls would love to make pillows that look just like this turkey/owl!

    Do you know what your friend used for the white belly of turkey disguised as an owl? Also, did she use black construction paper for body and yellow for feet? Super cute!
