The First Thanksgiving and the Gift of Gratitude
Long ago, the Pilgrims sailed on the Mayflower and landed in America. They celebrated their first successful harvest with a feast, inviting Native Americans who taught them how to grow crops. This was the first Thanksgiving. Today, we remember this feast by celebrating Thanksgiving every year. Imagine a young boy named Tommy, who is celebrating his first Thanksgiving. The table is filled with delicious food, like turkey, and everyone is excited. But Tommy's grandma explains that it's not just about the food. It's also about being thankful for all the good things and people in our lives. Tommy learns about the power of gratitude on this special day. Thanksgiving teaches us to be grateful and remember the first feast between the Pilgrims and Native Americans. It's a time to say 'thank you' and celebrate with loved ones.
