The assignment

To disguise a picture of a turkey so that he won't be eaten for thanksgiving.

The solution:
The turkey will be disguised as "The Pile of Toys on Lastborn's Floor."

The implementation:
We took a leftover wood tile from the bedroom floor, attached the picture of the turkey, cut out by Lastborn. Attached a base row of Lego plates, and then built up the layers of Lego plates until he had a 3 dimensional pile of Lego attached to the floorboard. The only part of the turkey picture showing is the turkey's eyes.

Quite a successful family project.

I'd take a picture, but the 2 dimensional aspect of the camera would make the effect less impressive.

Unfortunately, Lastborn has a cold today. So he wants me to carry in his artwork.
