THANKSGIVING
Thanksgiving is celebrated in the US on the fourth Thursday in November. For many Americans
it is the most important holiday apart from Christmas. Schools, offices and most businesses close
for Thanksgiving, and many people make the whole weekend a vacation.
Thanksgiving is associated with the time when Europeans first came to North America. In 1620
the ship the Mayflowers arrived, bringing about 150 people who today are usually called Pilgrims.
They arrived at the beginning of a very hard winter and could not find enough to eat, so many of
them died. But in the following summer Native Americans showed them what foods were safe to
eat, so that they could save food for the next winter. They held a big celebration to thank God and
the Native Americans for the fact that they had survived. Today people celebrate Thanksgiving to
remember these early days.
The most important part of the celebration is a traditional dinner with foods that come from
North America. The meal includes turkey, sweet potatoes (also called yams) and cranberries,
which are made into a kind of sauce or jelly. The turkey is filled with stuffing or dressing, and
many families have their own special recipe. Dessert is pumpkin made into a pie.
On Thanksgiving there are special television programs and sports events. In New York there is
the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, when a long line of people wearing fancy costumes march
through the streets with large balloons in the shape of imaginary characters. Thanksgiving is
considered the beginning of the Christmas period, and the next day many people go out to shop
for Christmas presents.
