Activities for Turkey Day!

Traveling for the holiday? I know most of you are!!!! Keep these exciting travel games in mind for when you are feeling tired or just want to have some fun until you arrive to your destination. You may recall some of them:

1. Connect the Dots
Each player takes turns drawing a line to connect two dots, either horizontally or vertically. If a player makes the line that completes a box, that player puts their initials in the box. Once all the dots are connected, the player with their initial in the most boxes is the winner!

2. Hangman

3. Tic-Tac-Toe

4. Car Search Game
This game can be played by 1 person or a whole group for a cooperative effort or a competition. The main goal is to mark off the names of cars as you see them.

5. US License Plate Game
See who can spot the most cars from different states across the U.S.
