Thanksgiving, like most holidays, is usually a big travel day for many Americans. Due to COVID-19, traveling may be difficult or look different than the norm this year. If you are unable to take a trip to see family this Thanksgiving, you can recreate the Thanksgiving tradition of traveling by planning your trip to a new destination next year!
This is one of the oldest Thanksgiving traditions the U.S. has. Every year, starting in 1989, the president will get two live turkeys as a gift. In a ceremony, he will then “pardon” the turkeys so they can go on another day not being on the dinner table.
This is the Thanksgiving tradition that we all love the most - Thanksgiving Dinner. Between the turkey, stuffing, cranberry sauce, and all the pies, there is nothing not to love.
If your family usually makes a whole turkey for Thanksgiving dinner, then you may be no stranger to this Thanksgiving tradition. Splitting the wishbone with a sibling or parent is always a fun way to end dinner. Make sure you try to get the bigger piece when it breaks so your wishes come true!
For 162 years, the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade has been one of the most celebrated Thanksgiving traditions. People from all over the world and country gather in New York to see the floats, giant balloons, live bands, and celebrity performances. This year, the parade will still be running but at half capacity. Tune into NBC at 9 AM to make sure you don't miss a minute!
