Thanksgiving Fun

This time of year is my favorite! I really think Thanksgiving is the best for my family. We have chosen many years back to keep thanksgiving to just our immediate household, meaning us and our kids and now grandkids.

Celebrating is a fun way to connect with one another and share and make some great memories.

Here are some exciting ideas to make your Thanksgiving memorable and fun for everyone!

1. Turkey Trot Treasure Hunt:

Kick off the festivities with a Turkey Trot Treasure Hunt! Create a map with clues that lead to hidden treasures around the house or backyard. Fill the treasure spots with Thanksgiving-themed prizes like turkey stickers, pumpkin necklaces, or mini-squash. Let the kids (and the young at heart) burn off some energy before the big feast!

2. Pumpkin Bowling:

Turn your backyard into a bowling alley with a fall twist. Set up a ‘lane’ using hay bales or corn stalks and use small pumpkins as the bowling ball. Create your pins with recycled bottles or cans painted in autumn colors. It's a surefire way to get everyone involved and provide plenty of laughs!

3. Gratitude Garland:

While your turkey is roasting, craft a Gratitude Garland with your family. Provide colorful paper leaves where everyone writes down something they are thankful for. String them together and hang the garland for a beautiful and heartfelt decoration that sparks gratitude and conversation.

4. Thanksgiving Cook-off:

Transform your kitchen into a culinary battleground with a friendly Thanksgiving Cook-off. Divide family members into teams, each tasked with creating their own version of a classic dish or inventing a new one using a mystery ingredient. Offer awards for categories like "Most Creative Dish" or "Best Use of the Ingredient".

5. DIY Thanksgiving Photo Booth:

Capture the day's memories with a DIY photo booth filled with fun props. Think Pilgrim hats, turkey tiaras, and funny speech bubble signs saying things like "Talk Turkey to Me" or "Stuffed to Perfection!" Set it up in a cozy corner with a backdrop of autumn leaves or a banner with your family name and the year.

6. Storytelling Circle:

Gather around after dessert for a storytelling circle. Encourage each family member to share a unique or funny story from past Thanksgivings or delve into family history with tales of ancestors. Share laughs, reminisce, and create new stories to tell in the future.

7. Movie Marathon Pajama Party:

Wind down the day with a movie marathon featuring Thanksgiving classics. Get everyone into cozy pajamas and prepare a snack bar filled with popcorn, hot chocolate, and leftover pie slices. Options like "A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving" or “Planes, Trains, and Automobiles” will keep everyone entertained.

This Thanksgiving, invite laughter, joy, and connection into your home with these fun activities that celebrate the essence of togetherness. So gather your family, including your , to enjoy a day of fabulous feasting and unforgettable fun. Happy Thanksgiving! 🍂🦃

About High Priestess Sandi Santiago (Lady Grey)

Founder of Liminal Soul Healing

I am not here to soothe the surface. I am here to summon your soul.

For over two decades, I have walked beside those lost in the fog—stress-bound, soul-weary, aching from the weight of trauma and the silence of blocked potential. Through the sacred shadows, I have helped guide them back to themselves. Whole. Sovereign. Transformed.

I am High Priestess Sandi Santiago, known in the unseen circles as Lady Grey—a name earned in the space-between, where the old self dies and the true self is born. I serve under the fierce and holy gaze of Kali Ma, the Great Liberator, the Dark Mother of sacred destruction and divine rebirth. It is She who moves through my work, clearing illusions, awakening truth, and forging the alchemical path for those ready to rise.

A Liminal Soul is one on the edge of transformation—no longer what they were, not yet what they are becoming. This is the threshold I hold. This is the work of Liminal Soul Healing: to guide seekers, sensitives, and sacred rebels into their divine remembrance through healing, teaching, and radical community.

I draw from a vast apothecary of healing tools—ancient and modern—to build custom experiences for every soul I serve.
I am an Ordained Minister, Reiki Master, EFT Practitioner, Sound Healer, Light Worker, Starseed, and Yoga Therapy Instructor. My path is one of integration—of combining sacred technologies into something powerful, personal, and alive.

My own healing journey has been one of fire and grace. I have faced autoimmune disease, depression, dissociation, trauma in both body and mind—and I have alchemized it into wisdom. I carry that lived experience with compassion and reverence into every session, ritual, and initiation.

This work is in my blood, my bones, my breath. And now, I offer it to you.

If you are standing at the threshold, aching for truth, ready to shed who you are not—
I am here. Let me witness your becoming.

Thanksgiving Fun
