Disguise a Turkey as Sonic

To disguise a turkey as Sonic, colour the bird blue, add a row of large spikes behind the head, give it white gloves and red sneakers with a white strap, and colour the tail feathers as more blue spikes. The spikes and the red shoes carry the whole costume. Allow about 40 minutes because there are several pieces to cut.

The PDF has three pages: this picture to colour, the cut-out pieces, and a blank turkey to build on.

What you need

  • Printed turkey outline on cardstock
  • Blue paper and a blue crayon
  • Red paper for the shoes
  • White paper for gloves, eyes and shoe straps
  • Peach or tan crayon for the tummy and muzzle
  • Yellow scrap for a ring and the buckles
  • Glue stick

No printer ink to spare? Print only page 3 (the blank turkey) and draw the costume by hand using the picture as a guide.

How to disguise a turkey as Sonic, step by step

  1. Colour the head, back and wings blue and the tummy peach or tan.
  2. Cut five long blue triangles with slightly curved sides. Glue them behind the head in a fan, pointing backward and down.
  3. Cut one wide white eye shape with two black pupils close together and glue it above the beak.
  4. Cut two red shoes, add a white strap across each and a small yellow square for the buckle, and glue them over the feet.
  5. Add two white glove shapes at the wing tips.
  6. Colour the tail feathers blue so they look like more spikes, and glue a yellow paper ring in one wing.
  7. Write the line: "My turkey is disguised as Sonic because you cannot eat what you cannot catch."

Printable Sonic cut-out pieces

Printable cut-out costume pieces for a Sonic turkey disguise

Print the cut-out sheet at 100% on plain paper or cardstock, colour the pieces first, then cut them out and glue them onto the turkey. The pieces are not scaled to one particular outline, so hold each one against your turkey first and trim it, or use it as a pattern to trace at the size you need.

The cut-out sheet was drawn with an AI image tool and checked by hand. Shapes are simple on purpose so small scissors can follow them.

Tips that save time

  • Cut all five spikes from one folded strip so they are the same size.
  • If the spikes flop, glue them to a scrap of cardstock first.
  • Two or three paper rings scattered on the page make the scene, and they are just yellow circles with a hole.

Lines for the writing part

Most classes ask for a sentence or a short paragraph in the turkey's voice. Three starters your child can change:

  • “I am the fastest thing alive, and I am already gone.”
  • “Gotta go fast. Dinner will have to go slow without me.”
  • “By the time the oven is warm I will be three zones away.”

There are printable writing pages for three grade bands in the project guide.
