Thanksgiving

 Thanksgiving is celebrated every 24th of November.  The first Thanksgiving was in 1621, but it didn’t become an annual tradition until 200 years later. So that means that the 1st Thanksgiving celebrated as an annual tradition was around the 1800’s. We celebrate Thanksgiving due to the Pilgrims first successful harvest in 1621. The first Thanksgiving was attended by 90 Native Americans and 53 Pilgrims. One of the biggest traditions in Thanksgiving is to eat turkey. Also mashed potato, cranberry sauce, and pumpkin pie. Another tradition that day is the Macy’s parade in New York.  It has been a tradition since 1924. The most important tradition is to spend the evening with your family members and loved ones.
