Thanksgiving Yam Race

Here is a fun Thanksgiving game to play before your mother starts peeling and cutting up the yams to cook for dinner.

It looks simple to do but does take more effort than one would think. Each person has a spoon and a good-sized yam and on the sound of the start button, each person pushes the yam along the floor towards the end designated spot. The winner is the person that can push the yam the full distance first.

A hallway is likely a good place to play this game. it will bring some good laughs for sure and you will see how flexible you are with the bending of knees, almost a forward bend to reach the yam with your spoon, shoulder and arm movements and lots of face muscle grimaces. This game will test your dexterity, balance and coordination and good humour.
