Frequently asked questions about Thanksgiving Slideshow
Most of us are familiar with creating slides for PowerPoint presentations, but what do you do when that doesn’t fully meet your slideshow needs? With Kudoboard there is a better way to make a lasting impression on your friends and family during this Thanksgiving season. A Thanksgiving slideshow from Kudoboard allows you to take your Thanksgiving card – full of messages, photos, GIFs, and videos – and display it on a screen for everyone in your group to enjoy.
Thanksgiving is known for bringing friends and family together to eat a delicious meal and share all of the things we are grateful for. Why not make it even more special with a Thanksgiving dinner photo display or a gratitude photo slideshow? Grandparents and other loved ones always love to see things going on in our lives and this is a great and easy way to give them that. Because your Thanksgiving slideshow can be played on a loop it is easy to press play and let it run in the background while your group is enjoying their dinner and conversations.
Though Thanksgiving is often thought to be an American holiday, other countries celebrate their own version as well. Regardless of where is it celebrated, the day is centered around good food and joy for the good in our lives. Here are some of the countries that celebrate Thanksgiving and when it is observed:
- United States: the 4th Thursday in November
- Canada: Thanksgiving or “Action de Grâce” is held on the 2nd Monday in October
- Liberia: the 1st Thursday in November
- Germany, Austria, and Switzerland: Erntedankfest (a celebration of autumn harvests) is held in early October
- Japan: 勤労感謝の日 (“Kinro Kansha no Hi”) is celebrated on November 23
We have worked to make this process so simple and quick that anyone can do it!
Once you click the “Create a Kudoboard” button on our website, select a “Milestone board.” The Milestone board contains the slideshow function, as well as allows unlimited posts on your board. Our template will then walk you through the next steps of choosing a recipient, naming your board, and choosing a background that fits your style. Voila! Your Thanksgiving board is set up. You can now add in whatever Thanksgiving messages or posts you would like. Once you are done, email the link to everyone in your group so they can join in on the fun. They can add messages, photos, GIFs, or videos to the board and all of it will be displayed as you play the slideshow. You will be amazed at how seamless and easy the process is!
Your board is full and looks exactly how you want it – now what? This is the fun part! When you are ready to play your Thanksgiving slideshow, simply click “play slideshow” located on your board or in your dashboard. Adjustments can be made for how you want your slideshow to be played, such as:
- The speed it plays
- If you want the title to show during the slideshow
- The order of the posts
- Skipping certain posts or videos
- Displaying a QR code on the screen for anyone who wants to contribute live during the slideshow
Kudoboard has 100+ backgrounds to choose from for your Thanksgiving slideshow, or our Milestone board allows you to upload a custom background. If you choose to create your own background, select “change background” on your board, select “custom background” in the pop-up panel, and add on your background. Then choose a header color, a background color, and click “save changes.”
The great thing about using a Kudoboard slideshow is the chance to customize it to whatever you need it to be! The sky is the limit for what type of Thanksgiving slideshow you want to present for you and your group this holiday season. If you are stuck and looking for some ideas to get you going, here are some options to try:
- Gratitude photo slideshow: everyone contributes a photo with a message of a few things they are grateful for
- Thanksgiving dinner photo display: Have the members of your group post a handful of photos of highlights from their year and things they are thankful for
- Who are you grateful for?: Each member of your group posts a picture of someone else in the group they are thankful for and why
- Honor a family member: choose someone important from your family, like a grandparent, and have everyone contribute a photo with that person and a message about why they love them or a special memory they have of with them
- Guess who?: Each member anonymously contributes a fun fact, memory, or message, and everyone has to guess who the author is
Absolutely. The board creators and admins can export and download the slideshow. Once you open your Thanksgiving board, click “play slideshow.” As your slideshow starts to play, look in the right-hand corner for the settings button and click “export video.” Once your video is ready you will receive an email with a button to download your slideshow.
