4. Set Up a Kid Corner
If you have little ones attending your Thanksgiving dinner party, it’s crucial to set up a kid corner. This should just be a designated area within your home for kids to play. Fill it with board games and movies, and this will keep the kids out of the kitchen (and your hair) while you cook up a storm. You could even distract the young ones with some crafts. All you need is some construction paper, kid-friendly scissors, crayons, coloring books, and glue (if you dare), and everyone will be happy and entertained. This customized play area will also likely prove to be a much better time for the little ones themselves.
