A Thanksgiving Game For The Whole Family

Who Doesn’t Love A Fun Game?

The holiday season can be whatever you decide to make it. Aren’t games so much fun when you have the room filled with family and friends? Here’s one from theidearoom.net that kids and adults of all ages can play…together! Pass this on to your friends…you never know who might need a way to make this month a little lighter and brighter. Happy Thanksgiving!

How to Play “The Best!”:

Choose a Host. If your family or group is large, arrange everyone into small groups (3-4 people). If you are smaller, then everyone can play as their own team. If you are playing with lots of people the rule stands that everyone has to participate in at least one round.

The Rules

The Host is in charge of announcing the contest category for the group. (For example: “The Tallest”, or “The Fastest”)
Once the category has been announced, each group will select one person who they think can win the category. Be sure you don’t announce the contest until after each group has chosen their player for that round.
There will then be a contest in that category. If a person has “THE BEST” within the category, his or her team gets a point.

*if you are playing as individuals, everyone will compete in each category and the winner will get a point.*

Let’s run through a practice round…

The Host would say “The Tallest”.
If you are in groups, each group would pick the person they think could win “The Tallest”. One person to represent the group.
Once every group has their representative, or each individual is ready, The Host will then announce what has to be done. For example, with “The Tallest”, then the Host could say, “The Tallest…Thumb”.
Everyone playing that round would come together to see who had the tallest thumb. That person would then get a point. Here are some category and contest examples. Use these, and add your own.
-The Tallest….THUMB
-The Fastest….CRAB WALKER
-The Highest….JUMPER
-The Longest….STARE IN A STARING CONTEST
-The Fastest….ALPHABET SONG SINGER
-The Quickest….TO BALANCE 5 DICE ON THE END OF A TOUGUE DEPRESSOR HELD IN YOUR MOUTH.
-The Farthest….MAKE A PAPER AIRPLANE AND SEE WHO’S FLIES THE FARTHEST.
-The Shortest….SHOE SIZE
-The Biggest….WHO CAN BLOW THE BIGGEST BUBBLE.
-The Quickest…WHO CAN UNWRAP A STARBURST WITH THEIR TONGUE THE QUICKEST.
-The Longest…WHO CAN BALANCE ON ONE FOOT THE LONGEST.
-The Most-est…WHO CAN EAT THE MOST MARSHMALLOWS IN ONE MINUTE
As you can see, the possibilites are endless. You can make them as complicated or basic as you would like. You can also have your kids or guests help put together a list while you make turkey dinner. You will find your family/group, laughing out loud.What are you “The BEST” at? Do you have the tallest thumb?
