Yes they are pulbished on the internet.

There are a number. The Turkey, an edible component of the holiday also associated with Thanksgiving. The partridge in a Pear Tree- the Goose. there are several and quite a few birds make up the bulk of the gifts in the song (l2 days of Christmas)

For eating, the Christmas goose is traditional in nursery rhymes but not so popular nowadays in the US. Turkey and maybe duck is more popular as well as roasting size chickens. On Christmas cards one sees a lot of cardinals and chickadees .

The Turkey is an important part of the Thanksgiving tradition because according to the legend of the Pilgrims and Indians they shared turkey in a several day fest to thank the Indians for helping them plant crop and harvest for winter. Whether the Pilgrims and Indians actually ate turkey is not known. It is possible that they did because Turkey would be redilly abundant in the east US but this isn't a certainty. However, Turkey is a food that is abundant in the US and is large and can feed many people, this is probably why Turkeys are eaten at Thanksgiving.

Canadian Thanksgiving is the second Monday in October, American Thanksgiving is the third Thursday in November. The traditions of Thanksgiving are similar though. In both countries the holiday celebrates the harvest and involves cornucopias, pumpkins, corn, wheat and other harvest bounty.

No. The Continental Congress did proclaim a national day of thanksgiving each year during the Revolutionary War, but the date varied each year; the first was Thursday December 18, 1777.

In 1863, Lincoln declared that the last Thursday of November would be a day of thanksgiving. Presidents after followed Lincoln in declaring the last Thursday of November as a day of thanksgiving, but this was by Presidential Proclamation, and so while it became tradition it was not a matter of law.

In 1939 Roosevelt pushed Thanksgiving back to the second-to-last Thursday in November, in order to allow more time for Christmas shopping, and thus to stimulate the economy during the depression. Some states followed Roosevelt's proclamation, whereas others followed tradition. Some followed both. Since states were split in their observance, Congress passed a bill requiring Thanksgiving to be observed on the fourth Thursday of November, which could be both the second to last and the last Thursday of the month, depending on the year.

Australians don't celebrate Thanksgiving in the same sense as Americans. They have a national day of Thanks, in which you thank others and God for that which you are, well, thankful for. However, Australia is a country founded to house convicts. They never had to survive a harsh winter (even in the south the winter is still quite warm compared to Mass.) and they never held a speific religious convition to forming their own country - it was simply easier to stay there after they had finished their term of punishment. Thus, they don't celebrate Thanksgiving in way that one would suspect.

Many people refer to it as Turkey Day. That's because it's traditional to eat a turkey on Thanksgiving.

Thanksgiving day, also known as 'Stupid Pilgrim's day', is a pagan celebration of the day food was invented, held by Americans, Canadians, Uglo-Americans and certain areas in Japan that just want to seem cool by copying everything the Americans do. == ==

There are many fun thinks to do on Thanksgiving because it is a three-day holiday. Some people cook and some might leave town and visit relatives. Some watch football on T.V. because their team is playing of simply because they like football on a day when you can relax.

On October 6, 1941, the House of Representatives passed a joint resolution declaring the last Thursday in November to be the legal Thanksgiving Day. The Senate amended the resolution establishing the holiday as the fourth Thursday, which took into consideration those years when November has five Thursdays. The House agreed to the amendment, and President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed the resolution on December 26, 1941. This established the fourth Thursday in November as the Federal Thanksgiving Day holiday.

There were many Pilgrims at the first Thanksgiving. Two of these include William Bradford and Edward Winslow.

Some Thanksgiving dinner side dishes are: mashed potatoes, gravy, corn, stuffing, green beans, fruit and/or vegetable trays, yeast rolls (or other type of bread), cranberries (or cranberry sauce), baked beans, "deviled" eggs, sweet potatoes, different types of salads, or other side dishes.

The most popular side dishes are probably stuffing and mashed potatoes & gravy.

In 1621, the Plymouth colonists and Wampanoag Indians shared an autumn harvest feast which is acknowledged today as one of the first Thanksgiving celebrations in the colonies

The same thing as in any Christian Church it celebrates the birth of Jesus.

Thanksgiving is a time for giving thanks. It was a moment of thankfulness started by the Pilgrims and the Native Americans. To commemorate the first feast Americans still celebrate Thanksgiving today.

1863 Lincoln declared Thanksgiving a holiday.

Who were the 2 people who attended the first Thanksgiving

yes the Indians attended the first thanksgiving.

You will need approx. 1/2 lb. per person, so you can get a BIG 25lb, or 2 smaller ones, don't forget the bigger the turkey, the longer in the oven! at least 11 hours approx (1/2 hour per pound) at a moderate heat. you may find that a very large turkey may be a bit dryer, (it is an older bird after all) so keep basting!! Happy Thanksgiving~!!

The Macy's Thanksgiving parade in 2011 will be held on Tuesday, November 24th, 2011 at 9am - 12pm EST. It will be broadcasted LIVE on NBC. The channel for NBC will be different for most people so I can not say a specific channel number.

Thanksgiving began when Pilgrims and Native Americans gathered together to celebrate a successful harvest. The first Thanksgiving was held in the fall of 1621, sometime between September 21 and November 11, and was a three-day feast. The Pilgrims were joined by approximately 90 of the local Wampanoag tribe, including Chief Massasoit, in celebration. They ate fowl and deer for certain and most likely also ate berries, fish, clams, plums, and boiled pumpkin.

Many Hindus revere and recognise Jesus as a Prema-Avatar, an Avatar of Divine Love. This is because many of his teachings were about finding the God within, and service of your fellow man.

However, Christmas does not fall in the Hindu Calendar. Hindus celebrate Diwali (festival of lights, sometimes called Deepavali) and the New Year.

There is a festival every year for homes and families. It is called Pancha Ganapati a festival to the five-faced elephant God. It is five days of gift-giving and festivities within the home, especially for the children. There is no need for a tree nor wreaths, nor a Santa. Lord Ganesha does it all in five days of merriment and mirth.

This home festival from December 21 through the 25 can include outings, picnics, feasts, exchange of cards and gifts with relatives, friends and business associates. Each day a tray of sweets, fruits and incense is offered to Pancha Ganapati, often prepared and presented by the children. Chants, songs and hymns are sung in His praise. After offering at the altar, the sweets are shared as consecrated food. Each day gifts are given to the children, who place them before Pancha Ganapati to open only on the fifth day. Greeting cards are exchanged, always offering Hindu wisdom or verse from scripture.

During each of the five days the entire family focuses upon a different spiritual work. Because of the importance of this festival as a new beginning and mending of all mistakes of the past, a festive shrine is created in the main living room of the home. At the center is placed a large wooden or bronze five-faced statue of Lord Pancha Ganapati. If this is not available, a large picture of Lord Ganesha will do. Each morning the children dress or decorate Ganesha anew in a different color: golden yellow on December 21, then ruby red, royal blue, emerald green and finally brilliant orange.
