C include some traditions from the first Thanksgiving.
Today, Americans celebrate Thanksgiving every year on the fourth Thursday of November. It's an official holiday. Much like the Pilgrims did, people express gratitude on this day. It is a holiday for giving thanks for abundance. People show that they are grateful for good things like family, friends, food and health. Many people take time to talk about something specific that they are thankful for. People often have a feast, just like the colonists and Native Americans. The menu usually includes turkey, potatoes, stuffing and pumpkin pie. Cornucopias are popular decorations. These "horns of plenty" are often filled with fruits and vegetables. Many people volunteer to help the poor or sick on Thanksgiving Day. Parades are also a common tradition across the country.
