Notes

Game Variation Idea 

Stuff the Turkey Toss Game
Make 3 Paper Bag Turkeys and divide players into 2 teams.
Place all 3 turkey bags in a vertical line and assign the closest one worth 1 point, the middle one worth 2 points and the furthest away worth 3 points. Play the game similar to bean bag toss. Give each team 3 wadded pieces of paper of a certain color. For example, Team One would have white paper and Team Two would have brown.
They should take turns trying to stuff the turkeys. The first team to get to 21 points wins the game
