This or That Thanksgiving Edition: Free Printable Game
This This or That Thanksgiving edition is a fun printable game that gets everyone at the table talking. Pick one from each pair, then ask a friend or family member what they picked and why.
There are 24 pairs on 2 pages, from pumpkin pie or apple pie to the kids table or the grown up table. There are no wrong answers, so it works for little kids, teens and grandparents alike.
Perfect for:
- Thanksgiving dinner while the food is still cooking
- Class parties and the last day before Thanksgiving break
- Friendsgiving and family get togethers
- A quiet activity for the kids table
- Car rides on the way to visit family
How to Play
- Give each player a printed page and a pencil.
- Circle one choice in every pair.
- Go around the table and share your picks. Say why you chose them.
- Count how many picks match, or just enjoy the debate.
For a quick game, read one pair out loud and let everyone point to their pick at the same time.
A Peek at the Pairs
The pairs mix food, family and fall fun. You will choose between turkey or ham, stuffing or cornbread, watching the parade or watching football, and raking leaves or jumping in the leaf pile.
Ways to Use It
- Icebreaker: place a page at every seat before guests sit down.
- Conversation starter: ask each person to explain their favorite pick.
- Classroom brain break: read the pairs aloud and let students move to a side of the room.
- Lunch box surprise: cut out a few pairs and tuck them in with a sandwich.
- Gratitude twist: end by asking everyone to name one thing they are thankful for.
