After dinner people relax, talk and watch a football game on TV. Football is the most popular game on the day. Usually there are several football games to watch on TV.

Every Thanksgiving Day there is a very big parade in New York City. Santa Claus arrives at the end. His coming marks the beginning of the Christmas season.

Thanksgiving Day started over 380 years ago with Pilgrims. 1620 one hundred Pilgrims came to America from England. They came on board the "Mayflower". The first winter the Pilgrims were hungry, sick and cold. Their life was difficult and full of danger. But the Native Americans helped the Pilgrims.

In the autumn of 1621 the Pilgrims had their first harvest. It was rather good. The Pilgrims decided to have a special dinner. They had a thanksgiving dinner for all the people. It lasted three days. They thanked the Native Americans for their help.
