Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving Day is a holiday celebrated in the United States (and also Canada). In the U.S.A., thanksgiving is celebrated every year on the fourth Thursday of November. Thanksgiving started as a religious celebration in 1621, when the first British settlers in America thanked God for guiding them safely to the New World, and for the good harvest which would allow them to resist the terrible conditions they were lving in. Nowadays, families gather together, usually to have dinner. There are some typical dishes served on Thanksgiving day, but the star of the celebration is turkey, whish is so important that some people even call the celebration "turkey day".

If you want to play a little "thanksgiving game" just click on the link below. It is about typical thanksgiving food. If you guess the words right, the turkey will be saved, if you don't, it will go into the oven...

I hope you enjoy it.
