Schools, offices and most businesses close for Thanksgiving, and many peoplemake the whole weekend a vacation.Thanksgiving is associated with the time when Europeans first came to North America. In 1620 the ship theMayflowers arrived, bringing about 150 people who today are usually called Pilgrims. They arrived at the beginning ofa very hard winter and could not find enough to eat, so many of them died. But in the following summer NativeAmericans showed them what foods were safe to eat, so that they could save food for the next winter. They held a bigcelebration to thank God and the Native Americans for the fact that they had survived.Today people celebrate Thanksgiving to remember these early days. The most important part of the celebration is atraditional dinner with foods that come from North America. The meal includes turkey, sweet potatoes (also calledyams) and cranberries, which are made into a kind of sauce or jelly. The turkey is filled with stuffing or dressing, andmany families have their own special recipe. Dessert is pumpkin made into a pie. On Thanksgiving there are special television programs and sports events. In New York there is the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, when a long line of people wearing fancy costumes march through the streets with large balloons in- the shape of imaginary characters. Thanksgiving is considered the beginning of the Christmas period, and the next day many people go out to shop for Christmas presents.
