Thanksgiving
The cornucopia (from Latin cornu copiae) or horn of plenty is a symbol of abundance and nourishment, commonly a large horn-shaped container overflowing with produce, flowers or nuts. The horn originates from classical antiquity, it has continued as a symbol in Western art, and it is particularly associated with the Thanksgiving holiday in North America.

Making new family traditions

Giving Thanks
We heard about the Thankful Tree - a fun craft to showcase what everyone is thankful for, and one that doubles as a Thanksgiving craft and decoration! Here's how to make one: cut out individual leaves from paper, and have each person write what they are thankful for on a leaf. Attach the leaves to a small tree branch, a paper cutout of a tree, or to the wall in the shape of a tree. One family saves the leaves from year to year to spark another Thanksgiving activity: reminiscing about Thanksgivings past.

Other ways of showing thanks were attending church to show thankfulness to God and to work with others to give back to the community. And, of course, going around the dinner table taking turns expressing what each person in thankful for.
