9 Sites for Thanksgiving Coloring Pages

When it comes to coloring, Crayola wrote the book. The Crayola website offers more than a dozen coloring and activity pages, including five Bingo boards.

You can print any of the pages to color, or color them online, using digital crayons, pencils, and markers. In addition to coloring turkeys, people, and food, kids can draw faces, create Thanksgiving cards and place settings, write Thanksgiving messages, and cut, color, and assemble a paper turkey.

PaperToys.com specializes in paper toys and models, some of which are fairly elaborate. The PaperToys.com site shows a color version of the turkey model's parts, for reference, but the printable version is black and white only.

Not a huge deal, but the model might be a bit more durable if you didn't need to color it with crayon, colored pencil, or markers. Still, it's a fun project and should keep kids busy for at least 5 minutes.

Younger kids may need supervision with scissors and a little help with the cuts and folds.
