How to Stay Active With Your Loved Ones This Thanksgiving Day

Fun activities to do with the family and friends while staying active during thanksgiving week.

Exercising with loved ones after indulging in a festive feast will keep everyone happy, healthy, and moving. Whether you will be near or far from your loved ones on this festive day, here is a list of fun workout ideas that the whole family can participate in.

 

Outside Thanksgiving Scavenger Hunt

Scavenger Hunts are awesome for so many reasons. The concept behind the beloved game revolves around participants collecting specific items or completing certain tasks. Being able to personalize the scavenger hunt and even include some riddles will make it all the more enticing. Take a selfie with a scarecrow, find a leaf that has both yellow and green in it, or collect five acorns are just a few ideas to get started when creating your own scavenger hunt. Be sure to come up with a fun prize for the winners. Breaking up into teams is a great solution for family members who might be too young to explore on their own or are social distancing. Group chats are a great way to track the progress of participants at a distance! For families who may have senior citizens or are looking for something more low-key, this free printable fall hunt might be just what you are looking for. Thanksgiving scavenger hunts are an excellent way to get exercise while making meaningful memories.
