These big feathers did not stay on the clothespins very well when the kids started getting rough. The first to get all of the clothespins wins! After a minute or so, the in charge person yells “Stop, Turkey, Stop!” Everyone has to freeze where they are. Then the person in charge yells “Run, Turkey, Run!” The kids all have to run and get clothespins off o the others’ shirts. We were wearing coats since it has been pretty chilly here this week. Turkey Tag is easy and lots of fun! The kids all get one or two clothespins pinned on to the back of their shirt or coat. When it was all dry it was time to run and play! ![]() We used our Elmer’s Extra strength glue to make sure they stayed put really well. Once the paint dried, my daughter wanted to decorate them with glitter glue, because everything is better with glitter! □ Then we glued on some feathers to the end of the clothespins. ![]() We used the Elmer’s squeeze n’ brush paints to make it extra simple & less messy.

So, our Turkey Tail Feather Tag was inspired by the runaway turkey in the story. He does not want to be eaten and runs and hides. It is about a turkey who is running away from the farmer at Thanksgiving time. If you haven’t read it, see if your library has it. We read a fun Thanksgiving storybook called Run, Turkey, Run! by Diane Mayr and were greatly inspired by this book. We call it Turkey Tag, or just Run, Turkey, Run! This is a perfect way to work off those extra Thanksgiving calories. I personally love running Thanksgiving 5k’s to keep myself moving, too! I came up with a Thanksgiving game to get my kids running and moving this Fall. I always try to get my kids out and moving a little in the cool air because I know it is so good for them to stay active! In the Fall when it starts getting colder, it seems like it is harder to stay active. Play a game of Thanksgiving Turkey Tag this fall! ![]()
