Why

Kids gobble up this new version of Tic-Tac-Toe. Creating a unique carry-all game board adds a feather to kids' caps.

Steps

1. Draw a turkey and some feathers on construction paper with Crayola® Crayons. Cut them out with Crayola Scissors.
2. Draw a tic-tac-toe grid of three rows and three columns of squares in the middle of the turkey. Decorate your turkey with features such as eyes and color the tail feathers with Crayola Washable Markers. With a Crayola Glue Stick, attach the feathers to the turkey.
3. Shape at least five X and five O game pieces (or any other two shapes) with Crayola Model Magic. Air-dry the pieces.
4. To make a storage pocket for your pieces, cut a construction paper square about as large as your turkey. Glue two sides and bottom to the back of your turkey. Leave the top open to insert the pieces. You're set to play Turkey Tic-Tac-Toe any time!

Interesting Info

If you enjoy playing Tic-Tac-Toe, try the opposite form of the game: Toe-Tac-Tic. The object is to NOT get three in a row. First player to get three in a row loses and the other player wins by default.

Safety Guidelines

Crayola Modeling Materials including Crayola Model Magic®, and Model Magic Fusion™, Crayola Air-Dry Clay, and Crayola Dough—

Keep away from open flames. Do not use to make candleholders, hot plates, trivets, or other similar objects that will be used or placed near fire and other heat sources.
Do not put in an oven, microwave, or kiln.
Do not make into vessels/containers that will hold unpackaged food.
The use of modeling material to make items that look like food is discouraged for children younger than age 5 to avoid their confusion with real food.
Unless sealed with a water-resistant glaze, do not make projects exposed to or immersed in water, such as boats or outdoor bird feeders. They would disintegrate when exposed to moisture.
Crayola Dough—contains gluten (wheat flour) as an ingredient.
Crayola Air-Dry Clay, Crayola Model Magic and Model Magic Fusion are gluten-free. However, they are produced on the same machinery as Crayola Dough which does contain gluten. Although the machines are cleaned prior to the start of each production run, there is a slight possibility that trace amounts of gluten from Crayola Dough may be present in the other modeling compound products. For information regarding specific ingredients or allergic concerns, please call our Consumer Affairs department at 1-800-272-9652 weekdays between 9 AM and 4 PM Eastern Standard Time.

Scissors—ATTENTION: The cutting edges of scissors are sharp and care should be taken whenever cutting or handling. Blunt-tip scissors should be used only by children 4 years and older. Pointed-tip scissors should be used only by children 6 years and older.
