Thanksgiving and Friendsgiving ideas
Thanksgiving is all about the meal, and the secret to a calm day is a good timetable. Our family feast plan works back from dinner time with exactly when to put the turkey in, when to start the sides and how to keep everything warm, plus crafts for the kids' table.
Friendsgiving takes the pressure off: the host roasts the turkey and everyone else brings a dish from a shared sign-up list. Both plans include a gratitude activity for the table.
