More Thanksgiving Day Traditions
Here are a few places to think explore more Thanksgiving Day Traditions to consider for your own family, along with a few comments. I got a practical start to the research at a blog for International Boarding Schools, of all places. The post, “Top 10 Thanksgiving traditions in the US” suggested this post was on the right track. Oprah offers a nifty slide-show of 34 Unique Thanksgiving Traditions Your Family and Friends Will Adore You may get a pop-up or two to start with, but I found the slide show easy to glide through, with nifty matching graphics and a few sentences bringing the ideas in each slide to life. Country living shares the 30 Best Thanksgiving Traditions to Try With Your Family This Year on a single long page of “fun and unusual activities will keep the crew entertained.” I could (maybe next Thanksgiving) do a post about Friendsgiving – a tradition I witnessed my own adult kids getting into perhaps a decade ago – and mentioned several times in the research, including the links above. We enjoy having friends over on Thanksgiving, as well as family. I think the whole idea of Friendsgiving is a great one. My wife has a great banner on her website, CindyCooks.com: Treat Friends Like Family, and Family Like Friends. The flip side of this research was learning that some traditions flat out don’t match up with what we learned about the origins of Thanksgiving, between the Pilgrims and Native Americans, in grade school. While many traditions are no doubt shared, if you Google “native american thanksgiving traditions” you may find links to “a day of mourning.” When all is said and done, Thanksgiving to me is simply a day to celebrate our blessings and to give thanks…a shared day of celebration and thanks if you’re lucky. Be lucky. Happy Thanksgiving! With all best wishes for you and yours to enjoy a Happy Thanksgiving!
