Great Thanksgiving activities printable for free. Just download for your kids and get them participate in welcoming your guests to enjoy the feast together:

1. Hand-Turkey Paper Rolls

Print out a wardrobe of fun! It’s easy: Your kids or your guests can trace their hands on a sheet of paper (or heavier cardstock) and then cut out the hand shape—supervise with little kids. Add an eye and mouth to the thumb, then dress up your turkey in either traditional garb or cool-kid costumes! As with paper dolls, you can either fold back the tabs to put the outfits on the turkey’s fingers, or take a little glue to stick them on.

2. Leaves of Thanks Centerpiece

Print out our leaf template on either white or colored paper, then have your kids color and decorate before everyone comes over. Put a leaf in front of each place setting and have everyone write what they are thankful for and their names. Put them all on the table and read aloud after dinner.

3. Thanksgiving Place Cards

Eight place cards you can print and your kids can color—with room to print your guests’ names so everyone feels welcome. (Having a big feast? Just print multiple copies!)
