Thanksgiving is celebrated on the fourth Thursday of November.
This tradition began with the Pilgrims and Native Americans sharing a harvest meal.
On this day, families gather to enjoy a big dinner, usually with turkey, stuffing, and pumpkin pie.
Many family members travel long distances, whether by car or plane, which can lead to crowded airports and road trips.
A popular modern tradition is watching the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade on television.
It features balloons, floats, and performances, making it a festive way to start the holiday.
