Happy face

When my ds and dd were little, we made Gumdrop Turkeys. For each turkey you need an apple, colored toothpicks and colored gumdrops. Decide which end of the apple will be the head and push in a toothpick with a red gumdrop on the end of the pick (do not push the toothpick in all of the way -- it is okay for the turkey to have a skinny neck!). For the tailfeathers of the turkey, fan out the toothpicks on the "backside" of the turkey apple. Put colored gumdrops on each toothpick end. For the feet (to balance your turkey on the table) break a couple of toothpicks in half and push 4 of these mini toothpicks on the underside of the turkey. This is a very easy craft, and looks very cute on the table (especially grouped together on an arranged group of leaves)! Have fun!!
