Cranberry competition< /p>

After the Thanksgiving dinner, some families often play traditional games. On the first Thanksgiving, people held dancing, competitions and many other entertainment activities, some of which have been passed down to this day. There is a game called the Cranberry Competition, in which a large bowl filled with cranberries is placed on the ground. 4-10 contestants sit around and each is given a piece of needlework.

At the beginning of the competition, they first threaded the needle and thread, and then strung the cranberries one by one. When 3 minutes were up, whoever could string the longest would win the prize. As for the person who was the slowest, everyone jokingly gave him a worst prize.

Corn Game

There is also a corn game that is also very ancient. It is said that this was passed down to commemorate the five corns given to each immigrant when food was scarce. While gaming. People hid five corns in the house and asked everyone to find them separately. The five people who found the corns participated in the competition, while the others watched. At the beginning of the game, five people quickly peeled the corn kernels in a bowl. Whoever finished peeling the corn kernels first won the prize. Then people who did not participate in the competition gathered around the bowl and guessed how many corn kernels were inside. The one with the closest guess received the prize. A big bag of popcorn.

Pumpkin Race

People’s favorite game is Pumpkin Race. The contestant uses a small spoon to push the pumpkin and run. The rule is that the pumpkin must not be touched with hands. The first to reach the finish line wins the prize. The smaller the spoon used in the game, the more interesting the game will be.
