Does this puzzle work for the kids' table on Thanksgiving?
Perfectly. Most words are foods children already know from the meal, so it keeps them busy while the grown-ups finish cooking.
Thanksgiving Word Search
Americans roast roughly 46 million turkeys every Thanksgiving, and most of the rest of the meal shows up in this grid too. Twelve words tie the holiday together here, from the stuffing and gravy on the plate to the harvest, the pilgrims, and the gratitude the day is really named for. Words can lean diagonally or double back on themselves, so trace each candidate to its final letter before counting it. Keep this one near the kitchen for relatives waiting on the oven timer, pass it around the kids' table, or use it as an autumn warm-up at school. To play on paper, run off the puzzle with its filled-in copy, and you can relax about privacy, since the solving stays entirely on the machine in front of you.

FAQ
Common questions
Which words tie into the history of the holiday?
PILGRIM, HARVEST, and GRATITUDE point to the day's roots, making them nice conversation starters around the table.
Is the three-letter word PIE really in the grid?
It is, and short entries like PIE and YAMS are surprisingly easy to overlook, so scan row by row when you near the end.
