Print out a turkey sheet for each child who wants to play, then gather some small pom poms, buttons, or colorful candy to use.

Gameplay is easy. The youngest person is the first player to roll the dice. Whatever number it lands on, have the kids use the key at the top to see what color feather they get to fill in.

Use your pom pom to fill in one spot of that feather. Next, pass the dice on and let the players go around the group one at a time.

If a player rolls a color they have already filled, they pass on the dice to the next player.

The game ends when the first person fills every spot on their turkey’s feathers! It’s a fun Thanksgiving game for small groups or pairs to play. Isn’t this Thanksgiving roll a turkey game easy peasy?!
