KIDS THANKSGIVING PARTY AND TURKEY TABLE IDEAS
Everyone knows the kid's table is where it's at on Thanksgiving. So why not throw a little festive feast catered specifically to your kiddos? We're sharing our best kid’s Thanksgiving party ideas, complete with terrific tableware, darling decorations, and the tastiest treats for your little turkeys! So hop on the gravy train, and let’s get this party started!
For decorations, Thanksgiving themed garlands and banners are the way to go. This felt banner set featuring festive fall leaves is easy to hang up and use over and over again every autumn. And if you’re the DIY-type, feel free to get your Thanksgiving craft or turkey craft on and make your own decorations!
Feeling a little extra? Balloon garlands are always fabulous for Thanksgiving celebrations! Go for a fun and playful color palette with lots of blues, oranges, pinks and hints of harvest brown.
The best Thanksgiving kids' tables are covered in turkeys and treats, but we suggest saving room for flowers, too. Floral centerpieces just feel so grown-up, so your kiddos will love having an arrangement especially for them. We love the look of marigolds in this Bethany Lowe Turkey Bucket; they add just enough playfulness and an autumnal pop of color.
Let's be honest, the most important part of any kid's Thanksgiving table is the food! As much as we adore pumpkin pie piled high with whipping cream, we thought we’d get a little more creative with the dessert selections. So let's talk turkey, chocolate turkey, that is.
Novelty treats make super easy dinner party centerpieces. And, they’re heaps of fun for your kids to gobble up! Set them on a simple dessert stand, and you have the most deliciously cute Thanksgiving decoration.
Though just one tasty treat isn't enough for a kid's Thanksgiving table spread. Feast your eyes on these adorable turkey chocolate strawberries with candy corn noses, and deliciously dipped candy apples! We’ve got the baking supplies and fixings you’ll need to whip up these goodies, and decorating them as a fun game pre-dinner is always on the table. But, if you’d rather shop pre-made selections, Harry & David has all sorts of delicious Thanksgiving desserts.
For kid-friendly tableware, we love going for Thanksgiving party supplies that match our turkey-tastic theme. Your littles will gobble 'til they wobble with some fun turkey plates and matching turkey napkins.
As far as permanent partyware goes, these le gobble plates have been a Bonjour Fête staple every Thanksgiving. They’re cute for the kids' table, but still elevated enough for the adults' table.
If you want your setting to feel a little more elevated, consider using these neutral turkey-shaped napkins and plates instead. They offer the same playful energy but in a more subtle, minimalistic way. Complete the look with a honeycomb place card holder, en voilà!
If you know anything about us, you know we're suckers for a good party cracker. And these Thanksgiving turkey crackers do not disappoint! They’re a perfect way to keep the kids busy while you’re cooking, and they make excellent party favors or prizes for Thanksgiving game winners. Hide them throughout the house for a fall scavenger hunt or set them at the table as place cards.
Thanksgiving parties are totally our jam, so we hope we've inspired you to throw a little extra something for your kids in your celebration this year! But don't let the holidays gobble up your sanity; we know your little ones will be thankful for anything you decide to whip up. Here's to a happy and hearty Thanksgiving!
