Thanksgiving Pilgrims

Here is a cute Thanksgiving decoration that you can make together!


It's Peter Pilgrim! What you need: a brown paper bag (lunch size), black construction paper, yellow construction paper, flesh-toned construction paper, 3 buttons, googly eyes, markers, stapes and stapler, glue, scissors.
First cut out the shapes you'll need:

You need to cut out:
flesh toned paper: two arms and hands, 1 circle for the face
black paper: two feet, two small squares, one long rectangle, 1 hat shape
Yellow paper: two bigger squares

Glue the long rectangle across the paper bag. Glue the yellow square in the center, then the small black square in the center of that to create a belt and buckle.

Glue on the buttons, feet and arms

Crumple up some newsprint and stuff it into the lunch bag.

Fold over the top and staple it closed.


Glue the hat onto the head, add the yellow and black squares to make another buckle.

Glue on googly eyes and use markers to make a face.

Glue the head onto the top of the bag.


We had such fun, we made a whole bunch of Pilgrims! Happy Thanksgiving!
