Game Directions

  1. Download the Who Is Most Like A Turkey Game.
  2. Print and cut the game cards on card stock. I like to use a corner-rounder on the cards to make them look official. Use just the turkey traits you like best. 
  3. Print and cut the turkey feathers of your choice on card stock. You will need a lot of turkey feathers (depending on how many guests youโ€™ll have) so I recommend printing the feather outline on color card stock to save on ink or purchasing these 5″ Paper Die Cut Feathers.
