20 Edible Thanksgiving Crafts for Kids

20 Edible Thanksgiving Crafts for Kids

Wow has this year really flown by! Before we know it, we’ll be cutting the Turkey at the dinner table on Thanksgiving day! I remember always getting a kick out of celebrating the Thanksgiving holiday when I was in elementary school. Every year we’d have a “party” where we would do a special study on early American culture, put together fun little crafts and devour seasonal snacks until our bellies were stuffed!

Now that I have a little one of my own, I’ve been busy searching for simple DIY crafts and treats that my daughter will enjoy. Since I just can’t seem to ever get food off of my mind during this time of year, I thought it’d be even more fun to find crafts that you could also eat! I’ve put together a collection of 20 Edible Thanksgiving Crafts for Kids that were all made by some pretty fabulous bloggers. Take a gander and let me know which snacks you’ll be gobbling up this year! 😉
