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 Native Americans for the fact that they had survived.
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.
