November - Thanksgiving FUN


"Thanksgiving Day, as the name itself suggests, is a time to offer thanks. On this occasion, there are family gatherings and holiday meals, giant balloons and holiday parades. On the dinner table, turkey is the most common meal, along with pumpkin pies. It's the time for all to indulge in fun with their family members and friends. Thanksgiving Day is commemorated on the fourth Thursday of November every year.  Celebrated as the national holiday in the United States to commemorate the harvest reaped by the Plymouth Colony in 1621 after a winter of great starvation and privation, this day was proclaimed as Thanksgiving Day in that year itself by the then Governor William Bradford, while the feast was shared by all the colonists and the neighboring Native Americans.  The lavish meals and delicacies served at the dinner table are symbolic of offering thanks to the God for the bountiful harvest had throughout the season. Preparing traditional foods, offering prayers, participating in colorful parades, watching football matches, and traveling to distant places for vacations are the most prominent symbols of this special holiday."
