Hi! My name is Missy. I’m an artist and a guest blogger here at PBS Utah. Thanksgiving is swiftly approaching and I thought it would be fun to learn about and do an arts and crafts project involving one of the symbols of Thanksgiving: the cornucopia. A cornucopia is a “horn of plenty.” It isn’t a real horn (like the musical instrument), but it’s kind of shaped that way. It symbolizes having an abundance or more than enough to have and share.

Instructions

  1. Use your crayons to color your cornucopia.
  2. Look through food magazines and use your scissors to cut out pictures of any food that you like to eat.
  3. Use your pencil, paper, and crayons to draw and color other foods you like. Cut them out with your scissors.
  4. Arrange all your favorite foods in and around your cornucopia.
  5. Glue them down.

Wrap Up

Doesn’t your cornucopia look great filled with delicious foods? You can hang it on your fridge or in your bedroom. Be creative and have fun!
