12 Turkey Shirt Ideas for Your Little Turkeys

Your little turkeys will love these fun turkey shirt ideas for Thanksgiving!

We started a tradition here when my oldest was just two years old. For Thanksgiving I made him a turkey shirt. 

The kicker? I wanted it to include his handprint or footprint so that I could look back at the shirts over the years (yes, I keep them!) and see how much he has grown! I know I won’t be able to come up with new handprint/footprint ideas every year – there’s only such much that can be done. But I might be able to do some variations based on these cute turkey shirt ideas.
