Q: Thanksgiving gender reveal ideas???

We will find out what our little one is the Monday before Thanksgiving, and we're hoping we can keep our lips zipped until our Thanksgiving dinners on Thursday with our families! We will have 2 to attend (my mom's side and his mom's side). Does anyone have any cool/unique ideas???

The only idea I have seen (and it's not Thanksgiving-related) is putting a balloon that says either "It's a boy" or "It's a girl" inside a large box (with question marks on it to further pique everyone's interest). When someone asks "what's in the box?" we'll reply "I don't know, maybe Grandma (or any relative that you want to make feel special) should open it." When the special relative opens it, the balloon floats out revealing the gender! Also another variations of this is to use a black balloon and before blowing it up put blue or pink confetti inside it. You would also provide a needle inside the box so when someone pops it the confetti flies!

Ohh I love the balloon ideas! We were supposed to find out 3 days before Halloween so we carved pumpkins that said 'It's a Girl' and 'It's a Boy' so we could use them in pictures as a big reveal, but the baby did not cooperate so we didn't find out. Now we're finding out the day before Thanksgiving (hopefully!!!). I was thinking about doing a pumpkin pie and writing something on it in whipped cream to reveal the gender, or making pink or blue rice krispie treats...not sure yet!

Bake a layer cake, and have the inside icing wither blue or pink...I have heard that bakeries will also do this as well, if you would rather buy a cake. Or wear a shirt that says girl or boy...if your family goes around the table and says something that they are thankful for as tradition...maybe say something like "I am so thankful that she will have enjoy her first thanksgiving with the most wonderful family in the world next year." Put your own spin on it.

GOod Luck...this is always so fun!
