Thanksgiving Mad Libs Free Printable
Thanksgiving Mad Libs are an easy, low-prep way to keep kids (and adults) entertained during the holiday.
This free printable, Feast Frenzy, blends silly storytelling with Thanksgiving-themed vocabulary for a fun activity that works at the table, during quiet time, or while the turkey cooks.
It’s a great way to sneak in parts of speech practice without it feeling like schoolwork. Kids fill in nouns, adjectives, and verbs to create a goofy holiday story, and then color the festive turkeys at the bottom.
Whether you’re homeschooling or just hosting, this Thanksgiving fill in the blank adds laughter to your day.

How Can You Play Mad Libs at Thanksgiving?
Thanksgiving Mad Libs are a fun way to get everyone, from kids to grandparents, laughing together. Here’s how we usually play:
- Print the free Thanksgiving Feast Frenzy Mad Libs (you’ll find it at the bottom of this page).
- Decide how to play, solo, in pairs, or as a group. It works great around the table or in a quiet corner.
- Explain the rules: each person gives a word (noun, adjective, verb, etc.) without knowing how it fits into the story.
- Fill in the blanks, keeping everyone’s words in order.
- Read the story aloud, expect a lot of giggles and maybe a few dramatic performances!
