We
have brought a unique collection of interesting Thanksgiving games for
you to play with your friends, relatives and loved ones at the time of
family reunion:
Thankerchief
An improvisation on 'Passing The Parcel,' all have to sit around in a
circle. They have to pass the 'thankerchief' or a handkerchief around
while singing:
"Thankerchief, thankerchief, around you go
Where you'll stop, nobody knows.
But when you do, someone must say,
What they are thankful for this day."
As soon as the poem ends, the person who has got the 'Thankerchief' has
to say something for which they are thankful to the Lord.
Turkey Hunt
Draw several turkey pictures beforehand or cut and paste them on a
number of cards. Hide them throughout the room. Now all the participants
have to hunt for the turkeys and the hunter with the maximum number of
turkey cards gets the prize. You can add to the fame by giving the
hunters clues from time to time.
Mr. Turkey, Here I Come
The player is to leave the group while the others hide a turkey toy or
picture in the room. Then player comes back and tries to hunt the
turkey. If player is near the turkey, everyone gobbles loudly, if he/she
gets farther away from the turkey, the volume is decreased accordingly.
The player who hunts the turkey in the least time, wins.
Cornucopia! Thanksgiving Game
Everyone in the party is given a Thanksgiving Name such as Apple,
Turkey, Potato, Cranberry, Corn, Pie and other such names. The number of
chairs is arranged in the room, one chair for each participant. Then,
the leader calls out any two names such as 'Apple' and 'Corn' and the
participants who got those names have to immediately switch over seats.
Any delay on the part of any one of them would result in getting both of
them out with their chair. The leader may suddenly call out 'Cornucopia'
at any time and everybody including the leader has to get up and change
his or her seats. Anybody who sits last is out with their seat. An
improvisation on 'Musical Chairs'.
