How to make a hand-turkey (was Self-mutilation?)

[Amy Z]

Ahem!  Amy the Kindergarten Teacher steps into the room.

No, little ones, you do not have to amputate your hands in order to 
make hand turkeys.  However, those truly devoted to the Master will 
not hesitate to do so.  Can it be that you believe that 
that Muggle-loving, crooked-nosed fool is more powerful than I?  Oh, 
wait a second, wrong speech.

Construction paper is that thick, coarse paper that comes in various 
deep colors, used for countless children's projects.  I eagerly await 
the British translation.

Take crayon in dominant hand.  Place other hand, fingers splayed, on 
construction paper, and trace around it with crayon.  Cut out shape 
with those awful little scissors that fit no one, not even a 
five-year-old, and are way too dull to cut construction paper.

Decorate thumb (paper version, not the one still attached to your 
hand) with cute little turkey face.  Decorate other fingers to look 
like feathers.  If very creative, add comb and wattles.  If very, very 
creative, add pilgrim's hat made out of black construction paper.  
Optional:  glue whole thing onto white paper and draw in feet.

Ooh, low blow.
