Thanksgiving is a holiday where you gather around with loved ones and eat great food and enjoy one
another’s company. On the fourth Thursday of November we celebrate this holiday, but how did it all
start? Well, it all begins with the Pilgrims and them arriving to the United States in
Plymouth (Massachusetts) in 1620. They had run into a Patuxent Indian, Squanto, who taught them how
to fish and grow corn which had helped the Pilgrims a lot. They had a peace treaty among them and the
Wampanoag Nation which resulted in them being friends and not enemies. In 1621, they had a feast that
lasted 3 whole days with 90 Native Americans and 53 Pilgrims. This was the start of Thanksgiving. Later,
Thanksgiving was celebrated to teach children about American freedom. Food that they had eaten
included venison (deer), ham, clams, lobster, fruit, pumpkin and squash. Turkey didn’t become the
traditional meat to eat until 1863 when Abraham Lincoln had made Thanksgiving an official holiday.
Turkey was chosen because it was known as “such a uniquely American bird” and so they chose
the turkey to be a traditional meal for this day. (Fun Fact: 46 million turkeys are eaten on Thanksgiving a
year!)
