Kid-Friendly Thanksgiving Leftover Ideas

When Thanksgiving has come and gone, you will most likely be left with those delicious leftovers.  What if you could turn them into something even more delicious for the kiddies and whole family to enjoy?

I have learned to get creative to avoid the "ohhhhh that again?"  Here are some Thanksgiving leftover ideas I have tried in the past and plan on trying again this year.  I know the simplicity of Thanksgiving leftovers can become stale or even dry.
