Thanksgiving Day

Each year Americans in the United States celebrate the Thanksgiving holiday on the fourth Thursday of November. One of the best things about Thanksgiving is spending time with family. Most families follow traditions begun on the first Thanksgiving.

Some traditions

• Famous foods associated with Thanksgiving are turkey and cookies. 

• At the meal, many families observe the ritual of going around the table to express what each member is thankful for.

• The President of the United States also traditionally pardons a live turkey, meaning the turkey will live on a farm without threat of being eaten.

• Black Friday & Cyber Monday

Black Friday

Since 2006, there have been 12 reported deaths and 117 injuries throughout the United States. It is common for prospective shoppers to camp out over the Thanksgiving holiday in an effort to secure a place in front of the line and thus a better chance at getting desired items.

Black Friday has routinely been the busiest shopping day of the year in the United States.
