What is Thanksgiving Day?

Thanksgiving Day is celebrated in North America on the last Thursday of November. People from the United States and Canada give thanks to God for all the good things they received during the year by feasting and prayer.

The Pilgrims first arrived at Plymouth Rock in 1620. They sailed on the Mayflower.The first winter in Massachusetts

was really bad and a lot of pilgrims died. The Indians helped the pilgrims through that difficult period.

In the Spring of 1621, the Indians taught the Pilgrims how to plant corn or grow pumpkins, beans, peas, etc. They also taught them how to catch fish.The harvest was very good and in autumn they had a lot of food.They had a feast to celebrate it and give thanks to God for all the food.
