Two Turkey Day Games to make your Thanksgiving a bit more fun for the little ones!
Turkey Tag! Each child has a colored turkey and you have to land it on your opponent’s shirt or pants to make them “it.” Here’s how you’ll do it:
Paint clothespins and then add goggly eyes, a little orange triangle nose, and a red gobbler.
For a second game, get out all your Scrabble tiles and play Thankful Scrabble! You can only place words for things you’re grateful for.
Do you have any games or ideas for adding a little fun to the day? We’re thinking puzzles, pick-up sticks, painting or drawing, and play-doh could be great quiet and fun activities. We hope you all have an extra playful Thanksgiving!
