Hey parents, or friends who will be entertaining little ones this Thanksgiving—if you watch the Macy's parade every year (🙋♀️) and you want a scavenger hunt, I made one! Actually, I made six, each a little different, for my boys and their cousins—fun for the whole family.
My hope is that they'll watch the parade with me and "mark off" items when they spot them.
Will they have fun with this activity? Spend more time doing the scavenger hunt than it took me to create the scavenger hunt? Finish any of the cards? Tune in to find out!
Or download yours—click here (Google Drive file).
Cheers to the start of the delightful, stressful, busy, memorable, relaxing, exhausting holiday season 😅 🫶 and a special warm wish of holiday joy to all the parents and caregivers out there who make the holiday magic possible.
// One note: Thanks to a cool project my son did a few years ago, our little family has talked about the difference between two distinct Native American powwow dances, Jingle Dress Dance and the Fancy Shawl Dance (or "fancy dancing"). You'll see those featured on a few of the cards, which is a cool way to introduce these examples to your kiddos! There are estimated to be at least seven Native American and First Nations communities represented this year, according to the Macy's Parade wiki.
