Thanksgiving History!
![Page 20: Thanksgiving in the USA!](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070514/587fa2021a28ab825e8b61b5/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
This is a short history of where the celebration of Thanksgiving comes from!
![Page 21: Thanksgiving in the USA!](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070514/587fa2021a28ab825e8b61b5/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
In September 1620, the Mayflower left England on a voyage carrying 102 people called Pilgrims who were looking for a
place to move where they could practice their religion freely.
![Page 22: Thanksgiving in the USA!](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070514/587fa2021a28ab825e8b61b5/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
The voyage across the Atlantic Ocean took 66 days. Then they landed and settled in a town called Plymouth, Massachusetts
![Page 23: Thanksgiving in the USA!](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070514/587fa2021a28ab825e8b61b5/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
The first winter they spent there was very cold and dangerous. Only half of the pilgrims survived.
![Page 24: Thanksgiving in the USA!](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070514/587fa2021a28ab825e8b61b5/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Some of the local Native Americans taught the Pilgrims how to grow corn, catch fish, avoid poisonous plants and survive in
this new land.

The next year after the first successful harvest of the Pilgrims, they held a great feast to celebrate. They invited the local
Native Americans that helped. The celebration lasted 3 days!

American president Abraham Lincoln made Thanksgiving an official holiday in 1863. It’s on the 4th Thursday of November
every year.

Thanksgiving Traditions Today!
![Page 28: Thanksgiving in the USA!](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070514/587fa2021a28ab825e8b61b5/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Today, we celebrate Thanksgiving to give thanks for everything we have in our lives (friends, family, health)!
![Page 29: Thanksgiving in the USA!](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070514/587fa2021a28ab825e8b61b5/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
People travel from all over to be with their families and celebrate! It is the biggest travel holiday of the year in the
USA!

We spend the whole day cooking the Thanksgiving meal. It includes roasted turkey, mashed potatoes, gravy, cranberry
sauce, pumpkin pie and many more delicious things!

Then we all sit down to eat, but not before giving thanks for everything that we are grateful for in our lives!

It is also a tradition to take a “turkey nap” after you eat all that food! Turkey has an ingredient that makes you sleepy!

There is also a big parade in New York City called the Thanksgiving Day parade. It has lots of big floats!
