Playdough Turkeys

I've been having to come up with massive quantities of short activities to keep Ian busy/entertained/but mostly out of trouble while Isabel is doing school work.  The problem is that all of the activities are equally enticing for Isabel and she starts to feel left out. 

Today however, we did an activity they both enjoyed!  Playdough turkeys.  I made brown playdough using cocoa powder for the brown....it smelled really, really good.

Then gave them craft feathers, googly eyes and pipe cleaners that I preformed into feet, a beak and a wattle.

Here are their creations:

 

This is what the chicks feel like when Ian holds them ;)

 

 

And because a post is not complete without our third little turkey....
