Get your Thanksgiving greeting cards and Thanksgiving invitations ready! It’s the season for falling leaves, pumpkin pie, and expressing gratitude.  How will you be celebrating with your children?

A Thanksgiving Scavenger Hunt for kids would be a ton of fun and an activity to keep them busy over the holiday break. Mike is back with a great group of clues:

  • For this clue, to find out where you are going, look in the horn that is overflowing.  (Cornucopia)
  • Find the next clue or your plans may topple!  Check near a bird who says gobble, gobble. (Turkey)
  • Your next clue, from what I’ve heard said, is near something a pilgrim might wear on their head. (Pilgrim’s hat)
  • These once grew on trees and have been changing color, sometimes they are raked, but are now a clue cover.  (Autumn leaves)

  • For your next clue, just take a short walk towards a corny old friend who grows on a stalk.  (Corn cob)
  • Your next clue is squashed in a familiar place … a month ago many of these were carved with a face. (Pumpkin)
  • I’m crispy and sweet and taste good in pie, I’ve got your next clue so come right on by! (Apple)
  • Do you “pine” for a clue?  I’ve got what you need!  If you were an evergreen, I’d be your seed.  (Pine cone)

Have fun hunting this Thanksgiving holiday!
