Make the time fly with family fun.

Thanksgiving Dinner

The first player starts by saying, “At my Thanksgiving dinner, I ate turkey.” The next player must repeat this and add another dish: “At my Thanksgiving dinner, I ate turkey and bread stuffing.” The third player must repeat it and add yet another dish: “At my Thanksgiving dinner, I ate turkey, bread stuffing and sweet potatoes.” The game continues with each player adding an item to the menu after first listing all the previous items in the exact order they were originally said. If a player makes a mistake, he drops out and the game continues until there is just one person left.
