Make a handprint Mayflower

This handprint Mayflower craft from Almost Unschoolers is a clever Thanksgiving craft for many reasons. First, if your little pilgrims are like my little pilgrims and love Thanksgiving because it means they get to make tons of handprint turkeys here's another fun idea for painting those palms. Next, they get some sweet scissor cutting gluing practice (go fine motor skills)! Also, it's a cheap and easy craft that'll look super-duper hanging on your fridge. And finally, it's a nice compliment to all the discussions you're having about Thanksgiving, the pilgrims and all that fun historical stuff (while checking out the craft don't forget to also watch the Mayflower II link they've posted...AWESOME!). Now shove off and set sail on a crafting adventure!
