Simple Thanksgiving costumes and props for Thanksgiving day or a Thanksgiving play.
This past year we finally got to get at our home for Thanksgiving.
Here are some simple Thanksgiving Costumes for kids we threw together.
Ill share more about our Thanksgiving play later.
We flattened a large Amazon box and I cut out the shape of the ship.
Then the kids helped me color the dark brown deck and blue water below.
I added some lines to show the wood used to make the boat.
Finally we used scrap cardboard and white paper to make 3 sails for our ship.
We attached our ship to a small orange box we got free at our local Target store.
That helped it to stand up and move easily for our play.
Turkey Costume for Toddlers and Preschoolers
This is probably my favorite costume I came up with.
I made a simple circle head that I taped on a brown crown that peaked at the front.
Then we glued on yes, triangle beak, red wattle, and orange turkey legs.
Native American Costume for Kids
My Kindergartner played the role of the Wampanoag in our Thanksgiving play.
Pilgrim Costume for Boys
The pilgrim costume came out super cute.
We made a black crown fitted to my 2nd graders head first.
Finally we taped on a hollow yellow square as a buckle.
The collar is super easy to cut out from a white piece of paper.
Now cut back down.
