Turkeys

We've got all sorts of fun turkey themed activities for kids, including turkey colouring pages, printables and crafts. Perfect for Thanksgiving, of course, but also perhaps a farmyard theme.

Turkeys are a bit of a strange looking bird, often known for being served as part of Thanksgiving dinner in the United States and Christmas dinner in the United Kingdom! There's a lot more to know about these funny birds though - kids can learn a little about them and have fun with our turkey themed activities below.

Turkeys are native to North America, and wild turkeys were nearly hunted to extinction in the 1900s. There are now around seven million wild turkeys in North America. Wild turkeys can fly, unlike domesticated turkeys.

Fun Fact: Researchers believe turkeys evolved from a group of dinosaurs that included the T Rex!
