Why it works as a party game
After the meal, nobody wants a new rulebook. Charades is the Thanksgiving party game that uses the couch as a stadium.

- One-minute turns, no talking.
- Correct guesses score. Draw again if time remains.
- Play to eight points or until dessert is plated.
Hosting tips
- Keep a few easy foods in the hat for younger players.
- No impersonating a relative in the room.
- Stand where both sides of the table can see.
