Hi there!

Getting ready for a big holiday meal is hard work, so let me make your life a little bit easier. I'm gearing up for Thanksgiving meal prep with these simple ideas to keep the kids entertained. Check out these fun ideas to keep the kids busy and happy while you slave in the kitchen.

5 crafts to keep the kids glued to their seats

Easy Pine Cone Turkeys - Turn boring pine cones into adorable turkeys with just a few materials.
Thanksgiving Bingo - Since no reading is required, even the youngest kids can lead this adorable bingo game on their own..
"Dressed" Turkey Craft - While you make turkey with dressing, let the kids dress these crazy turkeys.
Silly Turkey Coloring Pages - Just print, grab some crayons, and the entertainment is ready.
Thanksgiving Turkey Snack - Is it a craft or a snack? Both! Turn apples into turkeys, and then gobble them up!
