i think it was developed when people had a nice feast and thanked each other. It was when the Indians were kind to the pilgrims and teaching them how to grow food. And they were teaching how to survive in North America. They had a feast thanking God for everything He had given them. Although the pilgrims brought most of the food. Hence the name "Thanksgiving". They were so grateful for the Indians.

They celebrated the first Thanksgiving because they wanted to give thanks and appreciation for making it through the long journey. They were happy and shared the feast with Wampanoag Indians. There were sports, games, food, dancing, singing, and revelry. They prepared foods such as venison and fowl.
