A drawing of a Turkey, made with the help of an easy step by step tutorial.

This How to Draw a Turkey lesson has proven to be a very successful drawing project over the years, and one that I would bring out for just about any age level. Most kinders can navigate drawing an oval, neck and fan shapes, and older students have fun adding more details to their feathers.

There’s even a little bit of radial symmetry drawing practice, in the way that the feathers radiate out from the body. Kinders can concentrate on that basic idea and the older ones can see how evenly they can distribute the lines. The most pleasing and balanced look will come from having the same number of feathers on one side as there is on the other.

Materials for a Turkey Drawing

Eraser. Large ones you can hold in your hand do a much better job than just the pencil tips.

Black Sharpie Marker. These fine point permanent marker pens make nice black outlines, have a good tip for coloring, and never bleed when they get wet. Use them with good ventilation and add extra paper underneath to protect your tables.

Prang Crayons. These are a bit softer than other crayons so they sometimes look like oil pastels. They also have a some nice brown shades that Crayola does not have unless you buy their larger boxes.

Crayola Crayons. The reliable brand that always works well. The 24 pack has some of my favorite golden orange and yellow colors that seem a bit richer and warmer than the ones Prang has.
