cornucopia

• Question:-What can I fill my cornucopia with for a nice touch for the Thanksgiving Table?
  I just saw Martha Stewart on the Today Show and she spray painted hers gold. What can I fill it with? It is a good size cornucopia. Thanks for all your help!
  
  Answer:-Start out with some crumpled up white shelf type paper to partially fill the opening and it also will help elevate the contents. Artificial leaves draping out of the horn somewhat covering the paper and finish it off with fresh fruit ( red and green grapes, apples, tangerines, bananas, etc. ) your centerpiece has a double function ........

• Question:-What is an easy way to teach kids about cornucopia.?
  I'm a preschool teacher and we are learning about thanksgiving. I can not find anything about cornucopias. Please Help!
  
  Answer:-Well, there's always the Wikipedia article for a start. But instead of trying to find out about any established history why don't you get the kids to make their own? That way the cornucopia takes on a personal meaning.
  
  You could do a "what are you thankful for" type of activity. Each child lists three or so things that they are thankful for ("my mom", "my gran," "my cat," etc) and then makes a picture of each. The picture gets cut out and then pasted onto a paper cornucopia. Either each child gets their own or you could make a big one for the classroom or hallway wall for all the drawings to be displayed on.
• Question:-where can i get a hollowed out goats horn for my cornucopia?
  
  it would need to be from a rather large goat, I want a big one.
  actually oi!, thats not a far stretch from the true origin of the cornucopia.
  Im just not sure how well its gonna go over at the 2nd graders thanksgiving feast next week?
  
  Answer:-You can try leather shops locally. Also consider Farmers who raise goats locally.
  
  Paper mache would be a good choice also so here is a few tutorials to choose from. I would use some of the ideas and increase the size remember your armature is the support. Sealing them will make them protected from both the enviorment and from seeds and foods you put in it. If you plan to hang add a strong loop or other product for mounting to wall into the armature as you build it. (some trouble shooting for proper hanging will be needed so the placement is how you want it on the wall.
  If using as a center piece build into it a base. you can use cardboard or old styrofoam meat trays for this part. Paper mache can last life times if done correctly.
