5 ways to make family memories over Thanksgiving break 

Somewhere between a treat-filled Halloween and a holly jolly Christmas sits this small window of quiet – those days before Thanksgiving – when sports have slowed down, school has eased up, and the holiday hustle hasn’t fully begun. It’s that little bit of breathing room before the holiday rush hits. And while most people look forward to “the most wonderful time of the year,” these few days before Thanksgiving can be a true gift – a chance to intentionally slow down and spend time with your family. 

While all is calm and before things get busy and bright, here are a few of our favorite ways to create new family traditions and memories.

Make new memories watching a holiday favorite 

Gather the family together for heart-warming stories of adventures and kindness in the new season of Legends of Evergreen Hills™. All episodes, including past seasons called Stories of Evergreen Hills®, are available to watch now on the Chick-fil-A Play™ App.

Plan a family night out 

In the next few days, you’ll likely be doing a lot of cooking and eating. Take the night off, keep the kitchen clean and focus on spending time together. Head to your nearest Chick-fil-A® Restaurant and order a 30-count Nugget Meal to share with those you love.  

Have a groove-before-you graze dance party

Before diving into the buffet of holiday goodies, bust a moove with the Cows. Play Dance Moo-chine with Daisy, Sarge and Carrots on the Chick-fil-A Play™ App. The whole family willl have fun getting into a groove, by follow along with the Cows’ dance mooves.

Get inspired to pay it forward 

What better way to celebrate this season of thankfulness than by cheering on others who are giving thanks by giving back. Play It Forward is a game-show style sports series that showcases families competing to earn money for unsung heroes in their communities. Watch it on the Chick-fil-A Play™ App for a fun reminder on how rewarding it is to pay it forward.
