Talking Turkey Phonics Fun

This post may contain affiliate links.  Please read our disclosure here.

Thanksgiving is just around the corner! So, to add a little fun to our phonics mini-lessons I decided to create our “Talking Turkey” cup.  It’s so simple to make, and you probably have the supplies already on hand!  I use this quick activity to go over our phonics rules for the week.  Even though it’s so simple, the kids love it!

I made the Talking Turkey with a small cup and twisted some pipe cleaners to create the feathers.  Next, I added CVC words to popsicle sticks that we have been practicing.  Next, week we will be changing out our CVC words to sight words we have been practicing.
