Happy Thanksgivings Day!
Thanksgiving is a big holiday in America! It happens every year on the fourth Thursday of November. On this day, families and friends come together to share a special meal and give thanks for the good things in their lives.
The most popular dish is turkey, often served with gravy and cranberry sauce. Other foods include mashed potatoes, stuffing, sweet potatoes, green bean casserole, and pumpkin pie for dessert.
After the big meal, many families watch parades or football games on TV. Some people also take time to reflect on what they are thankful for.
The day after Thanksgiving is called Black Friday, which is famous for shopping! Stores have big sales, and many people buy gifts for Christmas. It is starting to become popular in Japan in the past few years as well.
Speaking of Christmas, this weekend is also when some families start decorating their homes with lights, trees, and ornaments.
Thanksgiving is a time to enjoy good food, spend time with loved ones, and start the holiday season with joy.
