Thanksgiving Day (U.S.)

Thanksgiving Day in the United States is a holiday celebrated on the fourth Thursday of November. It honors the harvest feast shared in 1621 between Pilgrims and Native Americans. Today, it’s a time for families and friends to gather, enjoy a special meal often featuring turkey, and express gratitude for their blessings. The holiday also includes parades, football games, and volunteering. While rooted in historical traditions, modern Thanksgiving emphasizes togetherness, reflection, and appreciation for what one has.
