Tips for Hosting a Great Thanksgiving Dinner
Hosting a Thanksgiving dinner can be stressful, especially if this is your first time hosting. By following our tips, you'll have a stress-free dinner that everyone enjoys.
Make sure you and your family get enough rest. This one might seem like a no-brainer, but in the craziness of preparing for Thanksgiving you can lose track of this basic need. Making sure that everyone in your family, including you, gets enough rest the night before will ensure that all of you have the energy to prepare the dinner and enjoy it. Try to get at least eight hours of sleep if you can.
Have something to keep guests busy. A lot of guests will want to watch football or talk, but you'll want to have another option for those who aren't interested in either, especially kids. Having a couple of family-friendly games that guests can play will keep everyone satisfied. Or, lay out some crafts for kids to work on while they wait for dinner. Waiting is the hardest part of Thanksgiving!
