Let’s Celebrate Thanksgiving!

Hello kids! Thanksgiving is here! Let’s celebrate!

If you don’t know what that holiday is, Clever Hedgehog will tell you about it!

Thanksgiving is a special holiday celebrated every year in late November. It’s a day for families and friends to come together, share delicious food, and be thankful for all the good things in their lives. 

Even if Thanksgiving is not celebrated in your country, you still can find things to be grateful for and to celebrate.

What are you thankful for this year? 💖

How did Thanksgiving 🥧 start? 

The tradition began hundreds of years ago when early settlers in America held a feast to celebrate their first successful harvest with the Native Americans. Native Americans lived in America long before the new settlers came. They helped the settlers by teaching them how to plant on a new land.

Many countries around the world have their own harvest festivals in autumn to celebrate, too!

Why Thanksgiving is important to a community?

Celebrations like Thanksgiving bring people together. They remind us to be thankful for what we have, share with others, and spend time with family and friends. These celebrations help us feel connected and make our community stronger.

What brings people together into communities?

People come together in communities because they share things like goals, traditions, or values. Helping one another, working together, and celebrating special events make a community feel like a family. 

How do we build good relationships?

Good relationships are built by being respectful and honest, and a good listener and helper. Saying “please” and “thank you” and showing kindness are small ways to make big connections. Instead of being afraid to make friends with new people, we can try to learn about them, listen to their stories, and understand that they are just like us in many ways.

What is a community?

A community is a group of people who live, work, or play together in the same place or share similar goals and interests. It can be your family, school, neighborhood, or even a group of friends who help and care for each other.

What can I do for a common goal?

Thanksgiving is also a wonderful time to think about helping others. Donating food, volunteering, or simply being kind to someone are all great ways to help others. You can help by being part of a team, sharing your ideas, or doing your part to make a project successful. Every small act, like cleaning up, helping someone, or following rules, makes a difference. 💖
