The Turkey Game is perfect for all ages because it can be used to practice almost anything!
Download and print the turkey template (below). Cut it out and tape it to the top of an empty tissue box. If you cut around the turkey’s body and leave his feet off it will be the right height. Cut an opening below the eyes for a mouth. Use it to play one or all of these turkey games.
Turkey Counting Game
Roll the die and feed Mr. Turkey that many blocks. When he is full (the tissue box is full), you win!
Variation 1: Start with 10 or 20 blocks. Roll the die and feed Mr. Turkey that many blocks. When all of the blocks are gobbled up, you win!
Variation 2: Only feed Mr. Turkey the blue blocks.
Turkey Shapes Game
Use buttons or blocks of different shapes. Feed Mr. Turkey the shapes and name each one as you feed it to him.
Variation: Name the color as you feed the shape to Mr. Turkey.
Turkey Words Game
Practice your sight words by reading each one as you feed it to Mr. Turkey.
Variation: If you don’t have word tiles, you can write the words on popsicle sticks or index cards.
Turkey Alphabet Game
Mr. Turkey loves to eat letters! Name each letter as you feed it to him.
Variation 1: Say each letter sound as you feed it to Mr. Turkey.
Variation 2: Only feed a certain color of letters to Mr. Turkey. Any plastic or magnetic letters you have on hand will work.
Variation 3: Let Mr. Turkey gobble up numbers!
