Thanksgiving Day
There is one day a year in America when all people stay home with their family and eat a big dinner.This is Thanksgiving Day .The Pilgrims celebrated the first Thanksgiving day in autumn 1621.They sailed to America from Plymouth, England in September,1620.Their voyage took 3 month. They came to America for religious freedom. The name of their ship was the Mayflower. They landed in December, 1620. There were more than 1 hundren people.
There were people living in America before the Pilgrims arrived.These people were the Native American Indians.They hunted, fisher and farmed to survive.The Pilgrims' first winter was very difficult. They had arrived too late to grow any crops. Without fresh food half of the Pilgrims died. The following spring the Indians taught the Pilgrims how to plant, fish, hunt and survive in America, to grow corn, pumpkins and use cranberries.
The crops did well and in the fall of 1621 the Pilgrims had a great harvest. They were thankful and decided to celebrate it with a Thanksgiving feast. They prepared a big dinner of turkey, corn, beans and pumpkins. They invited their Indian friends to share this three day feast. The Indians brought their food to the feast, too.
American still celebrate Thanksgiving day in the fall. It is celebrated on the last Thursday of November. Turkey is still the main dish and pumpkin pie and cranberry pie are the most popular desserts.
American children look forward to spend their Thanksgiving day with their grandparents. Listen to the poem "Over the river" written by L.M. Child in 1860. It is still popular with the children.
Thanksgiving day is associated with certain symbols and foods. Turkey is a part of the traditional Thanksgiving dinner, as well as pumpkin pie and cranberries. The Horn of Plenty is a familiar Thanksgiving symbol. It reminds us that our food comes from the earth. Indian corn is used as a decoration.People usually go to church in the morning or in the afternoon. Try an old Thanksgiving ritual this year. Start your meal with joyful noise of Thanksgiving.

Thanksgiving.
Thank you for all my hands can hold
– apples red and
melons old,
yellow corn both ripe and sweet,
peas and beans so good to eat!
Thank you for all my eyes can see
Lovely sunlight, field and
tree,
white cloud – boats in sea-deep sky
and butterfly
Thank you for all my ears can hear –
birds song echoing far and near,
songs of little stream, big sea,
cricket, bullfrog, duck and bee!
Детские переводы стихотворения
Спасибо тебе
За то, что в руках я несу
Яблоки, клюкву, что нашел я в лесу.
Желтые, сладкие зерна попкорн,
Зеленый горошек и помидор.
Спасибо тебе
За то, что я вижу вокруг
И солнечный свет, и творение рук,
Поля и сады, облака и моря,
Животных и рыб, в лесу глухаря
Спасибо тебе
За все , что я слышу:
И пение птиц, себе строящих крышу,
И эхо в лесу, и журчанье ручья,
За все, чему радуюсь я.Благодарю тебя за то,
Что вкусный спелый яркий плод
Могу держать в руках своих
И наслаждаться вкусом их.
За яблоки, за груши и за дыни,
Горох, фасоль и сладость кукурузы
За сочные и сладкие арбузы
Большое говорю тебе спасибо!
Благодарю тебя за то,
Что ничего прекрасней нету,
Чем музыка дождя и света
И на рассвете моря песнь.
За пенье тех чудесных птиц,
За щебетание синиц.
И за журчанье ручейка –
Ведь эта песня так легка.
