Turkey Hat

Turkey Hat From the tabletop to your child’s head, there will be turkeys everywhere on Thanksgiving Day this year! Kids love party hats, so why not make this holiday more fun for them while the adults are preparing the food and watching the big game on TV? They can design the hat themselves and decide whether they want to be either a turkey or a pilgrim. Which do you think your little one would prefer?

Place Card Holders

Place Card Holders Instead of just placing names on a card for each seat, ask your kids to help you with this creative turkey place card holder to make each place setting more festive! One way to really get in the holiday spirit with this craft is to ask your kids to write why they are thankful for that person on the back of each name card. Then during dinner, each person can read aloud what their card says!

Thankful Calendar

Each day your kids can count down to turkey day by opening up a new envelope on the calendar and reading aloud the things to be thankful for. Or you can have each family member write what they are thankful for each day and open them all on Thanksgiving.

Famous Quotes

Love is like a friendship caught on fire. In the beginning a flame, very pretty, often hot and fierce, but still only light and flickering. As love grows older, our hearts mature and our love becomes as coals, deep-burning and unquenchable.
