Teepe's

 Another cute idea from Family Fun.  Frost sugar cones with white icing.  Stick some toothpicks in the top.  decorate with brown frosting for your door and any designs you may want.  Add some candy if you want to and wala!

If I let go of the notion that everything has to be perfect, I think the preschoolers can do this :).  In fact, I think we will do it for our Thanksgiving day party!

Styrofoam Cup Turkeys

My daughter and I made these last night for her teacher. She had to also make one for her teacher from last year too. :) They were pretty easy and turned out super cute. We may make these as place settings for the big turkey dinner....if I have time to go to the dollar store for smaller cups. :)
First we painted the cups brown. While those dried we painted little strokes of yellow, orange, and brown on white paper. After that dried we cut them into feather shapes (I traced her hand and then just cut around it bigger). Glued the feathers to the cup. Used a pom pom for the head, Googlie eyes, and foam for the mouth. :) Easy Peasy!!
