Once the turkey is beautifully colored, it's time to give them some shape. Help your child carefully cut out the turkey. Be sure to use child-safe scissors, and supervise if needed, especially for younger children.

Step 4: Assemble The Turkey Emotions Spinner

Attach a brass fastener through the center of the two circles, ensuring it's secure but can still spin freely. To find the center, remember that "x" marks the spot. Make sure that the circle with faces goes on the bottom.
