Brayton Kindergartners on 'How to Make a Thanksgiving Turkey'

 
NORTH ADAMS, Mass. — The kindergartners in Shealee Cooke's classroom at Brayton Elementary School share their answers here to "How Do You Make a Thanksgiving Turkey."
 
They were pretty sure on where you get turkeys (at a store) and nearly unanimous on where you cook it (in an oven, though Gram's house makes a lot of sense) and what to do when it's done — eat it. 
 
But they differed on temperatures (we like "hot") and the times ranged from 22 seconds to 21 days. 
 
We hope you enjoy their cooking instructions — please don't follow them — and the "hand turkey" art they created to illustrate them.
We thank Cooke and her class for having some fun with us. Happy Thanksgiving!
