Thanksgiving is all about family and spending time together.
Generations often share the kitchen while creating some of the best tasting dishes. Bring the kids into the kitchen this year and help them learn about some of your family’s traditional Thanksgiving recipes. From toddlers to teens, there’s something everyone can do to help out.
Consider what meal preparation tasks are age-appropriate for each child in your family. Assign each child at least one responsibility. The more involved kids feel, the more excited they’ll be about sharing Thanksgiving dinner together.

Next week is Thanksgiving in the US and this year, health experts and government officials are recommending that everyone forego the large family gatherings with out-of-town guests and instead have a small private meal at home with just the immediate family.
Those of us planning on adhering to this suggestion will spare ourselves the hassle of getting dressed up to join others or invite others into our home. While going total casual and having Thanksgiving dinner in our PJs would be fun, there is a less lazy route: dress in a shirt dress in flannel material!
It’s soft, and the Buffalo check is homey. Slip on a pair of cozy ballet slippers and you’re good to go and don’t have to worry about what to wear for Thanksgiving this year.
The shirt dress with a collar universally flatters all shapes, body types and silhouettes, even expecting mamas-to-be. In fact, the easy-to-wear versatile silhouette is appealing in case you plan to take photos for the gram.
You can actually put some effort into the endeavor by wearing a tee shirt or turtleneck or camis underneath it.
If I were splurging, I’d invest in Salvator Ferragamo Joy Ballet Flats, to wear to Thanksgiving dinner this year, but sensibly, Vera Wang‘s affordable Simply Vera‘s Berner Women’s Flex Round-Toe Ballet which is a modest $17.99 is a better fiscally more responsible route.
To upgrade this super casual look a bit, tie your hair in a bun, drape a scarf around your neck and swap out the ballet flats for pumps or booties.
I like the H&M woven scarf which runs just $12.97 and I think is on sale this fall for like $10!
I like to mix up original items. I’d swap out the original belt with belt more edge like the handmade leather wrap belt by Ada.
Wearing pumps is cool if you’re a heel type of woman. They are conservative yet still always on trend and you can get them in a low heel too. I prefer booties. My fave booties are peep toe ones though they require you to have your tails polished and well pedicured.
I like Michael Kors Blaze Peep-Toe Leather Booties!
If you’re from one of those families that do not “do casual” for major holidays and you treat Thanksgiving meal like a formal occassion, you can still be comfortable and shi shi at the same time by opting for an elegant wrap dress instead of a t-shirt dresss.
A knee length of longer version of the dress would also make it more dressy. Wear your nice pearls and switch out the pumps for elegant heels or a nice pair of calf or knee-height boots. .
I like Dress Barn‘s striped cotton faux wrap dress which is currently on sale for $44, down from $75.
I am obsessed with the Wolfe Back Pearl by jeweler Serefina is exquisite way to show off a toned back. Dotted with baroque pearls, this necklace is perfect to drape for a showstopping back detail. It’s only $69 which is a steal in my book.
A pristine pair of heels complete the look.
The candle in this collage is Jo Malone LondonEnglish Pear & Freesia Candle.
Finally, the next day, my plan is to throw on an oversized comfy sweater over a pair of jeggings and head Black Friday shopping.
The first Thanksgiving as we know it was celebrated in 1621 in Plymouth, Massachusetts. It was a celebration that was born from the pilgrims desire to give prayers of thanksgiving to God for giving them a good harvest. Thanksgiving was tied to religious celebrations for hundreds of years, but today there are many secular celebrations as well. Many times, Thanksgiving is over shadowed by Halloween and Christmas because it’s not as flashy or filled with gifts and treats.
Here are some ways to teach your kids to be thankful and to enjoy Thanksgiving.
For this, you will need a jar of some sort. This is a great time to recycle a jar that you have recently emptied. Wash and dry the jar thoroughly and remove any labels that might be on it. Cut a strip of printer paper that is the right size to wrap around the jar. Encourage the kids to decorate the strip with a Thanksgiving theme, making sure to write “Thank you” or “Thanks” some place on the strip with crayons or markers. When the kids are finished, glue the strip of paper around the jar. If you like you can tie a pretty ribbon around the mouth of the jar. Have the kids cut up slips of paper that can be used for everyone to write what they are thankful for during the days leading up to Thanksgiving. During dinner everyone should pass around the jar and take a slip of paper out and read it.
There are many books in the library or at the bookstore that explain the story of the first Thanksgiving. Pick out a book that is age appropriate for the children you are reading to so that they can better understand the story. Use the story to teach the kids how you feel about Thanksgiving and why you think it’s important.
Create your own Thanksgiving trivia game. Go online and find a bunch of facts about Thanksgiving and put them on cards. Each question should be on its own card. The person who gets the question right can keep the card, that way you can see who wins the most cards at the end. The beauty of this game is that you can gear the questions to the age of the players. You may need to have true and false questions or multiple choice questions for little ones. This game can even be played at the table during Thanksgiving. You can reserve a special set of adult questions to be added to the game. You might want to print out the adult questions on a different color paper or using a different color of ink so that you will know which questions are meant for adults. The game can be fun and challenging, and it will also teach your children a lot about Thanksgiving.
There are some misconceptions about what kind of food was served at the first Thanksgiving dinner. Research with your child what foods would have been there and then prepare some of those dishes on the days leading up to Thanksgiving. A few suggestions would be: succotash, corn soup, squash, beans, maple sugar candy and berries (even cranberries). While you are cooking you can talk about how you think the pilgrims and Native Americans would have cooked their food since they didn’t have electricity. You never know, you might find some new family favorites.
Enjoy a movie that centers around people gathering and eating food that is age appropriate. There are plenty on family-focused channels.
Spend some time with the kids talking about Thanksgiving and why it’s important to you and your family. Many people find that adopting an attitude of thankfulness all year long helps them enjoy life more. Give it a try and see what you think.
