About this worksheet
A two-player paper game for the kids' table: a big dots and boxes board (9 by 9 dots, 64 boxes) where seven boxes hide a turkey worth 2 points, score lines for both players, and four tic-tac-toe boards (turkeys against pies) for a quick rematch. Needs only a pencil each. Good for ages 5 and up, siblings, cousins or a kid against Grandpa while dinner cooks. Big pictures and only a few tasks per page make it a gentle start for kindergartners.
On this sheet
Turkey Dots and Boxes Game Take turns drawing a line between two dots next to each other. Close a box? Write your initial in it and go again.
Tips for using it
- Pull a three-page packet per child for the short school week: one math page, one word puzzle and one gratitude page at their level.
- Print the answer keys (page 2) once and clip them to a folder so early finishers can check their own work.
- For a mixed-age family table, give every child the same activity at a different level: the picture word search for the five-year-old, the dinner table word search for the nine-year-old.
- Print the place cards and the placemat the evening before; children who color the table decorations feel like hosts.
Printing tips
Download the PDF and print at 100% (or “fit to page” on A4). It is a vector file, so the lines stay sharp on any printer. This page is free for personal, family and classroom use.
