Stick the Feather on the Turkey

A class room game for American Thanksgiving.

This game is easy to prepare and it is a funny way to teach new words such as: colours, up, down, in front of, back, left, right, turn, and so on.

You need:

- Two large pieces of construction paper, where you draw a big turkey without the feathers of the tale
- On the other piece of construction paper you draw a feather for each of the participants
- Colours
- Scotch-tape or Blue Tack
- Scissors
- A scarf to blindfold the players

 

What to do and how to play

- Prepare a feather for each player.
- Ask each player to colour the feather with one or more colours.
- Put a piece of scotch-tape or Blue Tack on the back of the feather.
- Blindfold the player.
- Spin him/her around a couple of times. (Be careful not to make players sick!)
- The remaining players then verbally direct (left, right, up, down, behind you, in front of you, etc.) the blindfolded player to the correct placement of his/her feather.
- To make this more competitive, you may ask each player to write his or her name on his or her feather, and then divide students into teams. 
- Take turns choosing players from each team. Only a player's team-mate(s) can offer directions.
- The winning team is the team with the most feathers successfully placed.

Have fun!

 

Variation: Stick the Feather on the Native Indian
Draw a big head of a native Indian and tìstick the feathers on!
