Thanksgiving Napkin Ring Craft
This makes a good craft for a Thanksgiving party. It's fairly quick to do if you do the first four steps prior to the party. Then let the party-goers glue on their own turkeys, use stickers and sparkles to decorate, and inscribe their names.

"Here is a suggestion for the napkin rings. Turkey
races! Have the kids put a large marble in the TP roll and then they
can race their wobblers around the house. It would work great with
any kind of napkin ring. We have a lot of fun with this at our
house."
