Thanksgiving is the time for tucking into sumptuous pies and enjoying some quality family time around the table. But why stop at eating pies when you can also craft a fun, pie-themed game to play with the family?
This Thanksgiving, engage your children in a craft activity that’s not only entertaining but also educational!
It’s a fun and easy craft for kids that will keep them entertained leading up to the main event. All you need is a paper plate, craft sticks and paint to “bake” it up today!
Craft Supplies:
- Large Paper Plate
- Orange or Red Craft Paint
- Brown Craft Paint
- Two Foam Paint Brushes
- Four Jumbo Popsicle Sticks
- School Glue
- Game Pieces – two different types
Directions:
- First paint the center of the paper plate completely orange or red.
- Next – paint the rim of the paper plate completely brown.
- To finish off the Paper Plate Pie Game, glue the FOUR jumbo popsicle sticks into a tic tac toe, hashtag shape in the middle of the painted paper plate. Just line each craft stick with glue and place them down.
- Set it aside to let it dry completely before you play with it.
- When ready, add the pom pom “whipped cream” and fake candy corn game pieces & play tic tac toe as normal.
- And of course you can change out the color of the paint to reflect other pie flavors {red for apple pie or green for key lime pie} Just have fun with it!!
