He wants us to realize that everything in life is a gift. That led to a lot of different answers as to what we’re thankful for.
– The group that has the most things, minus duplicates, wins.Įphesians 5:20 says, “Always giving thanks to God the Father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.” We all had different categories and letters in our game today. – Each group will then have one-two minutes to think of as many things that they are thankful for that are in the category and that start with that letter.
EXAMPLE: Around The Home is the category and “˜B’ is the letter: Bedroom, books, blankets, etc. – Assign each group a letter and a category. 1 point is awarded for each correct word while 2 points is awarded for the use of an original word that no one else in the. For example if the starting letter is ‘D’ you might choose words such as dog, donut, Denmark etc. – If possible, have students sit in groups of three-four. Fill in as many of the 25 categories as you can with relevant words that start with the chosen letter. Think up some categories that are similar to those used in the actual game Scattergories. Right now we’re going to play a game to help get those creative juices flowing! But there is so much that we should be thankful for, that it’s hard to think of it all. In other words, it’s the time in which we are thankful for everything we have been giving. Students will have to work together to think of as many things that they are thankful for as possible. This Thanksgiving Bible game will help students expand their minds when it comes to thinking of what they’re thankful for, and it will also help them practice some school skills, like thinking hard! “Scattergories” Thanksgiving Bible Game Materials:
