Congratulations Dan D.

Monthly winner for November

Finger Print Turkey Craft- Fun for all ages

Fingerprint Turkey Craft


A finger and a bit of paint are all you need to make this super-cute turkey.






Its fun for children to make for namecards on the Thanksgiving supper table (we don't normally use name-cards... we aren't that formal, but sometimes the kids like to help out with the decorating and hostessing... they always seem to arrange a spot right beside Grandma *grin*)







Materials:

brown finger paint

red, yellow and/or orange finger paint

scrap of cardboard or old margarine container lid (something to act as a pallet)



black marker



paper or card stock



Directions:

Squeeze a bit of brown finger paint onto a margarine container lid



Squeeze a bit of red and/or orange finger paint onto the lid, spaced away from the brown paint (or use a second lid)



stamp the pad of your index finger into the orange or red paint



Use your finger to make an arch of fingerprints as the turkey's tail



Optional: Make a second arch around the first one using your index finger or your pinkie again... you can use the same color or another autumn color for the second arch (it's actually better to make the outside arch first if you're planning to do two)



Use your thumb finger to stamp a brown thumbprint in the center of the arch as the turkey's body



Use a marker to add feet, a beak and eyes.

CHECK OUT THE NEW 2011 HONDA ODYSSEY




The all-new 2011 Honda Odyssey is the ultimate minivan reinvented, re-energized and




evolved. With its modern styling, spacious interior, and high-tech features, the new Odyssey



almost demands a new category. Although it's available with seating for up to eight



passengers, there's nothing “minivan” about the Odyssey's efficient-yet-sporty performance,



available 10-way power adjustable heated leather-trimmed front seating, authoritative V-6



acceleration and all the thoughtful engineering you'd expect from a Honda.



Of course, the new Odyssey pushes the tech envelope further with available features like a



16.2-inch Ultrawide DVD Rear Entertainment System with HDMI® Technology and split



screen viewing capability for those times when passengers just can't agree on what to watch.



And the available navigation system now includes FM Traffic, which alerts you to traffic



conditions and can suggest alternate routes. The Odyssey's sophisticated technology is



thoughtfully integrated for user-friendliness and simplicity—just load it with family and friends,



gear up, and go.
