This game is super simple and ideal for playing in a small group, like in the classroom, or with cousins and friends.

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

Game play is easy. The youngest player goes first and rolls a 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 one child fills every spot on their turkey’s feathers!

Easy peasy, right?!
