It is a holiday celebrated on the
fourth Thursday of November in the States. It precedes Black Friday.
It is traditionally a day for families and
friends to get together for a special meal. The meal often includes a turkey,
stuffing, potatoes, cranberry sauce, gravy, pumpkin pie, and vegetables.
Thanksgiving Day is a time for many people to give thanks for what they have.
Thanksgiving Day parades are held in some cities
and towns on or around Thanksgiving Day. Some parades or festivities also mark the
opening of the Christmas shopping season. Some people have a four-day weekend
so it is a popular time for trips and to visit family and friends.
Most government offices, businesses, schools and
other organizations are closed on Thanksgiving Day.
