Thanksgiving party games are the perfect side dishes to all the turkey, stuffing, pumpkin pie, and cranberry sauce consumed on this wonderful holiday tradition. Before the feast begins, have party guests work up an appetite by playing fu party games.
Cranberry Bobbing. This is the same game as Bobbing for Appplies, except we will replace the water with cranberry sauce for more fun. Cut up apple slices and place them in a cranberry sauce. Water down the cranberry sauce with water so players can maneuver around the sauce to catch the apples with the teeth. The player who can grab the most apple slices is the winner.
Target Pumpkin Spitting Contest. Pumpkin spitting is a common game during the autumn season but while distance is important, accuracy is just as important in this game. Draw a target on a piece of cardboard and decorate it as necessary. Place the cardboard target on the ground. Pumpkin seeds will then be spit at the target. Ward points to various sections of the target with pumpkin seeds landing in the center area worth 10 points of the highest value on the target.
A Race to Shuck Corn. Shucking corn is fun, but when you make a game out of it, with prizes and everything, it becomes the highlight of your Thanksgiving Day party. This is a fun game for the party guests to do some of the Thanksgiving Party meal preparations as well.
Gourd Race. If you can crawl like a dog and push a gourd in a straight line with your nose, then this is the game for you. Set up a course using cones hay, corn husks or anything else players can get around. The object of the game is to move the gourd only using the players nose. The first player to move the gourd from the start line to the finish line wins.
Don't Look For the Apple. You're in a search party in hopes of finding apples to bake the pie after dinner, except you are all blindfolded. Players must use instructions from their teammates and navigate the party area (game best played outside) and find the apples in various locations. The player who can find the most apples in the fastest time wins.
Football. Since football is so much a part of Thanksgiving Day for many, why not play a game of football yourselves? Play a rousing game of football, football toss, a simple game of keep away or tackle the man with the football in the front or backyard.
Thanksgiving will be more fun when you add games and actiivities to your Thanksgiving party supplies and invitations.
