Here are 15 amazing Thanksgiving printables for kids to have fun this holiday season! Includes games, puzzles and even educational stuff!

What is the first thing that comes to mind when you think of Thanksgiving? I know that it’s supposed to be gratitude, but I also know that for most of us, it’s going to be food!

Thanksgiving is a national holiday in many countries, especially Canada and the United States. Canada celebrates Thanksgiving on the second Monday of October while it’s the fourth Thursday of November for Americans. This year, the date falls on 23rd November.

Just like the holiday has different dates, it also has different traditions, but some are common. For instance, it’s an occasion for the whole family to get together and feast. The menu generally includes stuffed turkey, gravy, potatoes and cranberry sauce, followed by a delicious pie!

After this, most people settle down to watch Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade on TV, but if you’ve got kids who may get bored, we’ve got another idea – Thanksgiving printables for kids! Who knows, this may become another holiday tradition for your family!
