Thanksgiving Escape Room for Kids: The Pie Mystery (7 Puzzles, Ages 7+)

Grandma's famous pumpkin pie has vanished, and a cheeky turkey is behind it!

On Thanksgiving morning at Maple Hill Farm, Grandma Rosie's pie disappears from the windowsill. In its place: one orange feather and a note from Gobbles the turkey. He's hidden the pie and left seven puzzles. Can your kids solve them all and find the pie before dinner?
