Tyler and Mikko didn't get very far. They opened the package and then got distracted by the soccer ball for the rest of the day.
Kaveh and Giancarlo did much better. After reading the instructions, they soon assembled the wooden body.
Giancarlo: The Italians have always been great builders.
Kaveh: My people built the Hanging Gardens of Babylon.
Robin has strong organizational skills. He set Miguel and Frank to work sorting all of the feathers by size and color.
Miguel: This is hard work.
Frank: I'm getting hungry. Are there any cupcakes?
Next, Benjamin Roy and Pete began the task of sticking the feathers on the turkey. Anthony helpfully peeled the backing paper off all the feathers.
Benjamin Roy: Annabelle is helping, too! Good job, girl!
Annabelle: Woof!
Emile and Sasha continued with feather placement, with Emile assuming the supervisor role. He said that because he is French, he possesses a highly aesthetic sense. Some of the feathers didn't stick very well, so Anthony hunted down the double-sided tape.
Emile: They must look natural, but not too natural. Random, but not too random. N'est-ce pas?
Sasha: Huh?
Patrick and Frank completed the feathering and added an important, almost forgotten, finishing touch.
Patrick: Something's not quite right with this turkey. Something's missing.
Frank: Yeah, the mashed potatoes and gravy.
Patrick: Good guess, but no. I think the eyes, actually.
The boys are rightfully proud of their creation. They wish you a Happy Thanksgiving!

Fabulous post, they all worked very well together, but laughed at how easy it was for Tyler and Mikko to get distracted! A fun project for them.
