Who loves playing holiday games? These free printable Thanksgiving Charades are the best way to have some family time. Just print the Thanksgiving Chardes game, and let the fun begin! When it comes to fun Thanksgiving games, you’re going to want to add these free printable charades to your list! 

free thanksgiving charades cards printable

It’s safe to say that holiday games and activities are a must for the winter break and are a great way to have everyone in the family join in on the family game night fun.

The fun part about playing charades is that it’s different each time you play it. Each person will act out the cards and words in their own special way, making it unique and hilarious each and every time.

Being able to print out these Thanksgiving charade ideas and have everyone in the family join in and play sounds like the perfect holiday party! Just be ready – there might be a little bit of friendly competition happening in the house!

If you’re looking for fun Thanksgiving activities, charades need to be on your radar! These Thanksgiving charades for kids are great for all ages to join in on the excitement!

How do you play Thanksgiving charades?

All you need is this Thanksgiving list of words to get started! That doesn’t mean that you can’t add more (and I’ve included blank sheets for you to do just that!) if you want!

Start by splitting up into teams, and then fold up the Thanksgiving words and have the person who will be acting out the clue pick one. If their team members can guess what they’re acting out before the time runs out, their team earns a point!

Take turns with teams, and the team who ends up with the most points wins!

How many people do you need to play charades?

how to play charades with thanksgiving charades cards

For this inclusive game, you can literally play this group game with 2-20 people! (or more!) You really just need someone to be able to act out the clues and someone to guess them. But I can promise that the more people you have, the crazier the game gets!

The object of the game is to act out a word or use words to describe the word. Just be careful you don’t use the word. You can use props, hand gestures or even a drawing board. The first team will choose a player to do the motions. The actor will stand in front of the room, while the rest of the team guesses the word. You can set a timer or create a time limit to keep the game moving along. Keep track of the amount of points and at the end you can declare a winner.

You can also just play this charades game for fun. You don’t even have to keep points or pick and “winner” if you don’t want to. See how many you can get in a specific amount of time – and have fun doing so.

Supplies

  • Printer
  • Copy paper/Cardstock
  • Laminator (this is optional – but I love laminating my stuff!)
  • free printable Thanksgiving charade cards

This is a non-editable printable PDF files. We do include a few blank charades cards templates so you can add your own Charades ideas with Thanksgiving-themed words.

Grab your free printable Thanksgiving games charades cards. Lots of laughter is ahead with this collection of Thanksgiving Charade words.

The really great thing is that once you print, you’re ready to play. I typically like to laminate the charade cards because I don’t want to have to print them over and over again. (and that is such a time saver during the holidays)

When it comes to creative and fun for kids, this adorable Alphabet Handprint Craft is the best. This printable alphabet handprint crafts activity is great for early learners as well as preschool-aged children who love messy play! Create an adorable handprint alphabet book or fun keepsakes for mom and dad. Have fun learning all the letters A to Z with these adorable Alphabet Handprint Crafts for Toddlers.

A to Z Alphabet handprint art for toddlers

When the kids are little, it’s fun to find creative activities and crafts to do with them. And let’s be honest, the kids will be super pumped to dip their little hands in paint and be a part of creating the alphabet sitting right next to you.

The really fun part about this handprint crafts activity is that every page focuses on a letter of the alphabet (and has a super cute and fun saying to go along with it!)

How do you keep the paint from staining kids’ hands?

Some paint will stain hands and sometimes, there isn’t anything that you can do about it. Instead of acrylic paint, the BEST way to keep the paint from staining their hands is to use a washable paint (like this low-cost set.)

You can also add a tad bit of lotion on their hands and have them rub it in before dipping their hands in the paint. This is a great way to add an extra barrier to their skin and can help avoid having stained hands for weeks!

Why are handprint crafts important?

I get it – I’m a parent (and former classroom teacher) and I know the thoughts that surround messy play. But, in my mind, messy play is great for creative play, imaginative play, and fine motor skills as well. In addition to working on fine motor skills and creativity, hand, and fingerprint art leaves a piece of history behind. It captures tiny hands on a certain date and year so you can look back at the little handprints and ask yourself through nostalgia “how did they grow so fast?!” It’s two birds with one stone – learning and sweet keepsake crafts.

Since each printable letter of the alphabet has a space for the kids to dip their hands in paint and be a part of the process, this will also keep them engaged during the entire alphabet activity. That is HUGE for little kids!

Super Adorable Alphabet Handprint Craft

letters of the alphabet crafts for preschool

Are you ready and excited to print out this activity and get started? Keep in mind that the kids can go at their own pace and don’t have to complete the entire alphabet in one sitting! But if they want to keep going – let them!

Supplies

Many of these supplies are ones that you’ll probably already have at home. If you’re like me, you may have a special craft section in your house that you keep stocked with options at all times!

  • Paint (of various colors)
  • Crayons/markers/colored pencils
  • Printer
  • Printer paper

A to Z Alphabet Handprint Crafts

We have plenty of fun STEM Projects for Kids and Creative Lettering Books and Marker ideas that the kids are sure to love as well.

  • space for handprints on every page to create a fun picture

  • Zebra Letter Z Handprint Craft

The really fun part about this handprint alphabet printable is that once the kids are done, and all the pages are dried completely, you can then create an alphabet book for them to showcase and save!

What are the benefits of Alphabet Art Activities?

By incorporating artwork into alphabet letters you are promoting early literacy bringing auditory learning to kinetic learning. The child had heard the letter, visualized the letter, and now they are working with their hands to further imprint (pun intended) the letter into their memory bank.

These handprint artwork activities promote…

  • aids in early reading
  • develops vocabulary
  • helps with letter recognition
  • connects how printed text is associated with the spoken language
  • promotes sound recognition (when verbal instruction is incorporated)
  • supports the development of cognitive, social-emotional, and multisensory skills

Directions

100 Truth or Dare Questions for Kids

These Truth or Dare Questions for Kids are sure to be the hit of the party! With 50 funny truth questions and 50 questions for dares, it’s the perfect balance of both! Not only is this a clean and family-friendly version of truth or dare, but this printable truth or dare card game makes for perfect fun at sleepovers, birthday parties, and even family game night, too! These fun truth or dare printable questions are going to bring loads of laughs and forever memories! 

Printable Truth or Dare Card Game

I remember all the hours of fun that I spent with my family and friends playing truth or dare growing up. The questions were silly and fun, and they literally still bring a smile to my face when I think about them. This is why these 100 Clean Truth or Dare Questions are a MUST for any type of party with friends!

You can easily print out these questions and use them as a fun ice breaker during a sleepover or challenge the kids to step outside their comfort zone and try a few of the fun dares. Just be ready – you may find yourself getting pulled in to join the fun! Get your truths ready and live up to the challenge of the dares!

How do you play Truth or Dare?

The rules for truth or dare are plain and simple. The person whose turn it is to pick someone simply chooses someone who is playing and asks them, “Truth or Dare?” It’s totally up to the person being asked what they choose. (although most people in the room will be screaming for them to choose dare!)

If truth is chosen, a truth question is read from the printable card, and the person being asked must tell the truth. If a dare is selected, a dare is picked, and the person then has to do whatever is on the card.

The rules are simple. However, you can twist up the game with a few game variations including…

  • Have players alternate questions between truth and dare
  • Is your crew likely to chicken out of a dare, pick two dare cards at a tie and choose one. The discarded card goes back to the pile.
  • Use your blank template and print as many times as you want. Personalize the game by entering and adding your own questions to the pile. Stay within the rule – keep it clean!

But don’t worry, parents – it’s all in clean fun! Be sure to establish those rules early on.

More Fun Sleepover Games

Remember that truth or date is just one of the sleepover parties that are always a hit. If you are looking for more sleepover ideas, take a look at these popular slumber party games including:

Good Truth or Dare Questions to Ask

With an equal balance of good truth questions to funny dare questions, it’s going to be quite the fun game! You’ll soon find out if you have a house full of daredevils or ones that prefer to sit and talk instead! See a sneak peek below at some of these good truth or dare questions to ask so that you know what to expect from your printable cards!

good truth or dare questions girls at sleepover

A few of the truths included are:

  • What is your favorite summertime memory?
  • Which movie character would be your perfect best friend?
  • What subject is your least favorite?
  • What is your signature dance move?
  • What is something you are afraid of?
  • What’s your favorite holiday tradition?

A few of the dares included are:

  • Eat a spoonful of salt and sugar (or pepper) mixed together.
  • Go outside and do the chicken dance.
  • Get wrapped from head to toe in toilet paper.
  • Put on as many shirts as possible.
  • Go outside and yell “Merry Christmas!”
  • Let the person beside you brush your teeth.

In this Truth or Dare Card Game bundle, we also included a blank template. Use your own cards to write some personal questions that would not be fitting for the entire population. Consider questions including…

  • Who is your crush at school?
  • What’s your biggest pet peeve of someone in this room?
  • What’s the most embarrassing thing that happened to you that no one knows?
  • What is your strangest dream?
  • Put a cookie on your forehead and eat it without using your hands.
  • What’s the worst thing that happened to you at school?

Who are these Truth or Dare Questions for?

These clean questions are perfect for all ages and can really be adapted to a happy birthday party, a family game night, or an ice breaker adult party.

Tweens: Youth will have a blast challenging their bravery with all these silly dares. They’ll love having a balance between truth and dares that they can go back and forth with.

Teens: The teens may never admit that they had fun, but they will! Mom, just have them hide the phones so that there aren’t any incriminating photos put out there on the web!

Adults: These printable cards would be fun for adults, too. They’re great for a family game or as an ice breaker during a family reunion. You’re never too old for truth or dare!

Be sure to agree that all secrets stay in the room!

Printable Lemonade Stand Signs

Do your kiddos dream about running their own business? With the warmer months here, these printable Lemonade Stand Signs can easily make their entrepreneur dreams come true! They’re also super fun for pretend play at home, also! These printables are perfect for spurring the creation of all their lemonade stand ideas! 

printable lemonade stand signs

Doesn’t every child dream of running their own lemonade stand? It’s one of those outdoor activities that show they’re capable, ambitious, and creative – all at once! These printable lemonade stand signs are a super fast and easy way for the kids to create their very own summer business idea easily and with minimal effort.

These printable lemonade signs are brightly colored and sure to catch the eye of anyone who happens to be driving or walking by. All that is left is for the kids to make homemade lemonade, grab a few supplies, and set a price point for what they’re going to be selling it for.

The lemonade stand banner is perfect for hanging in front of the table, and they can even keep track of every glass sold with the printable tracker page, too! Talk about a way to get their minds working during the summer months!

This lemonade printable packet is perfect for teaching them lifelong skills revolving around customer service and learning how to earn money. And if you need stellar lemonade recipes, check out my Copycat Chick-fil-A Lemonade Recipe and Pink Lemonade Recipe.

How much does a lemonade stand cost?

Lemonade stands are not cheap plus they take up lots of storage. If you purchase a lemonade stand, you likely will be paying more than the revenue you end up making in your sales. Lemonade stands start at around $50 and can go all the way up to $400 if you get a custom lemonade stand on Etsy.

Alternatively, you can make your own DIY Lemonade Stand using an upcycled wooden pallet. You can also purchase a cute lemonade stand table cover you can quickly toss in the wash at the end of your event.

Where is a good place to set up a lemonade stand?

It’s all about visibility! Anywhere where there is good foot traffic or cars that are driving by is a great place to set up the stand. Just be sure that you’re in an area where it’s safe for the kids and that they’re away from the side of the road and traffic.

Another great idea for a lemonade stand is to have it at the end of your driveway or in your front yard. That way, it’s off the road but still visible to everyone who is passing by.

Tips for Printing These Printable Lemonade Stand Signs

Since there will be many opportunities throughout the summer months and year to use these lemon stand printables, why not laminate them so that they last?

The kids can help with the laminating process and also use their cutting skills to cut them out, too. It can be a fun family team effort to put together everything needed.

Don’t forget that they can always add their own works of art to the signs as well! Handmade signs are always popular in drawing in more customers, too!

Supplies

  • Lemonade Stand Printables
  • Printer
  • Paper
  • Laminator (I really like the Scotch brand but Amazon has a good one too.)

Don’t forget that if you’re making a real lemonade stand, then you’ll need to gather up the ingredients to make and serve lemonade as well!

The kids will have a blast with these Pretend Play Restaurant Printables! They can now work on their customer service skills by inviting you right into their own restaurant! Perfect for creative play and a fun way to spend some time engaging with your little one. These fun dramatic play restaurant printables are perfect for all ages and are a great way to use their imagination as well! 

restaurant pretend play

I remember when I was little, and I was always creating fun scenes and jobs in my head. One of the creative games that I played over and over again was that I was working at the grocery store! There’s just something so fun about pretending to scan items and help out the customers, and this is what stemmed the idea to make these super fun kids play restaurant printables.

These pretend play restaurant ideas are easy to print, which means that the kids can start creating their own restaurant area in the house (or outside!) right away. This fun and interactive game would also be great for a sleepover or a super cute addition to any playroom as well.

What are fun ways to use these pretend play restaurant printables?

This is where the fun starts! Once everything is printed off, your little one can create their own restaurant as they see fit. You get to be the customer and choose food items from the printable menu and wait for your play food to arrive! The restaurant menu promotes literacy as each item not only has visual representation but is spelled out too.

If you have a cute play kitchen or a table that you can pair up with these dramtic play printables, that just adds to the ambiance and fun.

After the meal is served, your child will create the guest check for you to pay for everything you’ve eaten. Use this kit as a time to work on math while counting out the correct amount of money – and just a great way to open up the lines of communication.

You can even add your own silverware and dishes and lay on top of the provided table setting. If you have a play kitchen with plastic food, incorporate some of those 3-D food and restaurant items too. The great thing about creative and pretend play is that there are opportunities for learning fun throughout the whole time!

More Pretend Play Fun and Activities

Why stop with just one dramatic play idea? Here are some other great dramatic play activities and games that the kids will love as well:

  • Play and Learn to Read with this Toy
  • Kids Party Games
  • Indoor Games

Who are these Pretend Play Restaurant printables for?

They’re for anyone who likes to pretend! These would be super cute to have as a birthday party theme as well – and are great for sleepovers or family nights at home.

dramatic restaurant play printables for young kids

Toddler/Preschoolers: Early learners will love being able to find their independence in running their own restaurant. This can help them build confidence and learn how to be a big helper, too! Let the creativity go wild. Use for at home pretend play or laminate and use in a preschool classroom set up for a dramatic play center. Add a Melissa & Doug waiter or waitress costume  with apron or chef’s hat.

Older kids: Even though these restaurant printable pretend play items are geared toward younger kids, this is where the older kids can have fun being “served” and ordering! Have them sit at the table and see what type of treats and food that they’ll get from their younger siblings. You never know what hilariousness will ensure!

Adults: Interactive play is the best type of play. Sit down and enjoy this time with your little ones. They’ll love that they have your full attention, and you’ll love seeing them take charge and play! This is also excellent for preschool teachers when setting up a classroom. Adults can use this as play prep before going on an adventure to a real restaurant setting.

Tips for Printing These Free Printable Restaurant Ideas

The biggest tip that I have is to laminate the printables once you print and cut them out. This will keep them from getting torn or ripped, and the kids will be able to use them over and over again.

We also keep the restaurant printables and props in an airtight storage container so that the kids can grab it and have everything that they need when it’s time to play restaurant!

Supplies

  • Restaurant Dramatic Play Printables for Kids
  • Printer
  • Paper
  • Laminator (I really like the Scotch brand but Amazon has a good one too.)

fun beach games to play at the beach

Beach Theme Scavenger Hunt 

With so many cool things to see on the beach, this beach treasure hunt is certain to be a blast. Just create a list of treasures, split into two teams, and see who can find all the items first. Make certain that you add some fun and wacky things that you’d only be able to find on the beach. 

Supplies: paper, pencil, beach scavenger hunt list

Mini Golf

You don’t need a golf course to play golf. Just bring a few clubs from home (or pick up some cheap ones at a second-hand store) and make the beach be your course. Dig a hole in the sand and put or put a few cups out to try and hit the balls into. Use your creativity to play just like a real round of golf where the person with the lowest swings wins. 

Supplies: cups, golf ball, golf clubs

Squirt Ball Relay

The quicker you are here, the better. Grab a blown-up beach ball and a squirt gun full of water and see who can use the water from the squirt gun to push the ball across the sand to the finish line. Don’t worry, you’ll more than likely run out of water and have to run to the water and fill up during this time! 

Supplies: beach ball, water gun

Beach Towel Parachute

The concept of this game is fun and addicting. Have a beach ball in the middle of a beach towel. Have two people hold the tall and use it to bounce the beach ball up and down. The more bounces, the better because if it hits the ground, you have to start counting all over again.

Supplies: beach ball, beach towel

Musical Towels

The same rules apply here as musical chairs but you use towels instead. Lay the towels out on the sand, have the music playing, and let everyone walk around and do their best to scramble to a towel once the music stops! 

Supplies; beach towels, radio/music player

Beach Bowling

Put those empty water bottles to good use. Line them up in the sand and then use a ping pong ball and try to knock them down. Can you do a strike? Only time will tell! 

Supplies: empty water bottles

Shell Shuffle

Who can balance the shell the best? All you need to do is balance dry sand on a spoon and place a shell on top and the race is on. Who can carry the shell back and forth the quickest without it falling off? 

Supplies: shells, sand, spoons

Hole Sand Hole

If you’ve ever played cornhole, you’re going to have a leg up on this game. Start by digging five holes into the sand and make certain to give them a bit of space in the sand as well. Use a ball and do your best to fit the ball into the holes so start racking up the points. 

Supplies: balls

Flick n Sticks

This game is fast and fun to set up! All you need are 4 sticks/stakes, 4 cups (2 pairs of the same color), and a frisbee. Put the stakes in the sand several feet apart from one another. (You can decide the distance and can easily shorten or lengthen it as needed.) Split into teams of 2 and have each team stand at a stake. Take turns tossing the frisbee back and forth with the main goal of getting points. Points are earned by throwing the frisbee in between the 2 stakes and extra points are also earned for knocking the cup off the stakes as well.

Supplies: stakes/sticks, cups, frisbee

Frisbee Golf

Who says you need a frisbee golf course? Just set out some fun beach items and use your frisbee to toss and get as close as you possibly can. The one who throws the flying disc closest wins that “hole”. 

Supplies: beach items, frisbee

Water Bucket Relay

Such a fun water challenge to play! Grab a cup and a couple of buckets and get geared up. Each person takes the empty cup, runs and gets water in it, then takes that cup of water and runs to the empty bucket to fill it up. The first person or team to fill their bucket wins!

Supplies: plastic cups, buckets

Beach Blow

It’s time to get down on your hands and knees and dig! Take a spoon or a small shovel and dig out a path. Then drop a ping pong ball into the groves, grab a straw, and blow your air through the straw to move the ping pong ball down the path. If you don’t want to dig two paths for competition, just set a timer and see who can complete it the fastest.

Supplies: spoon/small shovel, straw, ping pong ball

Hot Potato

Since you’re on the beach it just makes sense to pass around a beach ball instead of a potato, right? Have everyone sit in a circle and start passing the ball around while the music is playing. Be quick and careful with your passes as the person who is holding the beach ball when the music stops is out of the game. 

Supplies: beach ball, music player

Sponge Relay

Just how much water does a sponge really hold? You’re about to find out. Have sponges in a bucket of water at the start line, and an empty bowl at the finish line. Once “go” is said, each person then has to grab a soaked sponge, sprint down to the empty bucket, squeeze out the water, then head back to do it all over again. The team who fills the empty bowl overflowing with water first wins!

Supplies: sponges, bowls

Beach Ball Relay

Air up those beach balls and get ready to run. Have each team line up, one behind each other, and get ready. The first person grabs the ball, sprints to the other end of the beach, and then sprints back to hand off to the next person in their relay line. The kicker? If the ball gets dropped at any point in time, they have to start over and do it again! 

Supplies: beach balls

Pass the Water

Do you have what it takes to not spill a drop? Have teams line up in a row and give the first person in line a cup of water. Once “go” is said, the person holding the water cup full of water has to hold the cup over their hand and pour out the water into the empty cup of the person behind them. Do this until the entire team has done it and then see what team has the most water in the final cup!

Supplies: cups

Wet Shirt Relay

Line up the teams and get ready to “wring” out some fun. Have a bucket with a t-shirt in it, ready to go. The first person in line grabs the wet shirt and sprints across the beach to an empty bucket or bowl, waiting to be filled. The person wrings all the water out of the shirt and then takes the shirt back to the next person in line who starts the process again. The first team to fill the bucket with water wins!

Supplies: beach bucket or bowl, T-shirts

Calling all Starbucks fans! You’re not going to want to miss out on this Starbucks Chocolate Bomb recipe! Why spend a ton at the store when you can make them at home for a fraction of the cost? With just six simple ingredients needed, you can’t go wrong with this easy and delicious treat.

STARBUCKS CHOCOLATE BOMB

I’m a huge fan of literally anything with the words chocolate and Starbucks. But combined? I’m over-the-moon crazy about this simple treat. So much so that I find myself making this easy hot cocoa bomb recipe all year long.

Because why wouldn’t you want to have a treat that is all your own? I love Starbucks and being able to have a bit of “me” time and make something that I don’t have to share. (don’t judge me – I literally share everything else all the time!)

The other really great thing about this simple hot chocolate bomb is that it’s an awesome gift idea, too. Make these up for a family member, friend, teacher, or coach. Use these fun “Thanks a Latte” gift tags as a way to spruce up the gift and complete the look!

HOW DO YOU USE HOT CHOCOLATE BOMBS?

There are a couple of different ways that you can use them. I prefer to put them in the bottom of my mug and cover them with warm milk, but some people use hot water instead. (I think it’s to cut down on the fat content but in my opinion, the milk adds a much-needed and delicious sweetness!)

HOW DO YOU STORE HOT COCOA BOMBS?

They’re actually quite shelf-stable! You can put them in a container with a lid and store them for a few weeks without worry. Although I highly doubt that they’d hang around that long, waiting to be enjoyed.

WHERE TO BUY HOT COCOA BOMBS

While I highly suggest making them homemade, you can also buy them to save time, too. Some of the best places that I recommend buying hot chocolate bombs are:

HOT CHOCOLATE BOMBS AMAZON

HOT CHOCOLATE BOMBS ALDI

HOT COCOA BOMBS COSTCO

HOT CHOCOLATE BOMBS WALMART

HOT CHOCOLATE BOMBS TARGET

ETSY HOT CHOCOLATE BOMBS

All are going to be different flavors and looks so you’ll have a ton of great choices to choose from.

For even more awesome DIY hot chocolate bombs, don’t miss out on this massive Chocolate Bombs list!

Along the way of the treasure hunt, you can have small prizes or candy. Alternatively, save the biggest prize for the end of the hunt. Perhaps a fun New Year Gift. You could even make the prize an experience like a family trip that will be taken next year (which is basically… tomorrow!)

Who are these Treasure Hunt Clues for?

Toddlers: When doing this new year treasure hunt with toddlers, pair the child with older kids, or an adult, to guide them through the riddle clues. As hints, you can also have pictures of each item featured in the clues.

Teens: Youth and older kids can also enjoy this treasure hunt. Split them up in pairs, print the file twice and set the timer. The mission is to be the child that runs the race with the shortest time limit. The winner gets a trophy (which isn’t really a trophy – just all the glory and boast) which means so much to any teen!

Adults: Why not? Take on your inner youth and go on on a scavenger hunt around the home. The rewards are small bottles of liquor or maybe one pound lost at each new clue…. man, I would be running that race fast! But really, if doing this hunt for a significant other, you could make it sweet and have a photo of memorable events of the past year. It create a cute and instant photo album. Toast with Champagne glasses at the end.
