Thanksgiving is one of the most universally celebrated holidays in the United States. It has religious roots, but also secular traditions.

The settlers of the Massachusetts Bay Colony in the early 1600's are often credited with initiating the feast. These Puritans and Pilgrims thought that celebrations of Christmas and Easter were frivolous. In fact they thought that ANY celebration was frivolous. But it was entirely appropriate to give thanks to God for protection and guidance. In 1621 Governor William Bradford proclaimed a "Day of Thanksgiving" for having survived the first winter and bringing in a harvest. But it bore little resemblance to modern feasts. Yes, turkey and cranberries were on the menu. So was squash. But so were venison and beans, too. Those were what was available.

Other early feasts have laid claim to be the "first Thanksgiving." Spanish explorers held a Mass of thanksgiving in 1565 near what is now Saint Augustine, Florida. Other Spanish explorers held a thanksgiving service in San Elizario, Texas, in 1598. And the founding charter of Berkeley Hundred in the Virginia Colony, dated 1619, codified a day of thanksgiving.

President George Washington proclaimed the first nationwide thanksgiving holiday on November 26, 1789. But that was a one-shot deal. Thanksgiving didn't become an official annual federal holiday in the United States until 1863. President Abraham Lincoln decreed that the final Thursday of November, each year, should be a day of Thanksgiving. President Franklin D. Roosevelt, in 1941, changed the date from the final Thursday of November to the fourth Thursday.  

So now people everywhere have pageants re-enacting the feast at Plymouth Colony in 1621. That's where the pilgrim costumes come in. Then there are the turkeys. And the pumpkins (they're a type of squash, so may have been part of the Plymouth feast). Legend has it that some Native American Indians were part of that feast, and that they in fact helped the colonists to survive long enough to have it.

Go ahead. Celebrate Thanksgiving any way you want. You could even wear a jersey or fan T-shirt for your favorite football team. No modern Thanksgiving is complete without watching at least one football game.

However you choose to celebrate, enjoy the holiday with your family and friends!

Thanksgiving Costume Ideas

Thanksgiving is time to enjoy the company of family, savor the feast that’s been prepared and reflect on what we are most thankful for. It is also a time to talk about traditions and history, to remember the stories of those who helped inspire the holiday we enjoy today, and of course there are more modern traditions like watching football, finding turkey trot costumes for your race, or making preparations for Black Friday, too. But if you want to have a throwback holiday that’s true to the traditional way, we have a serious suggestion on how to execute; Pilgrim costumes. Do Turkey Day in costume with Thanksgiving hats, a turkey outfit, or baby Thanksgiving costumes that are bound to bring a few laughs to the family table!

Just slip this gold buckle accessory onto your own black shoes to recreate the look.

There’s nothing like kicking off your loafers, sitting back, and lighting up the old corn cob pipe. Cause after all that tryptophan from the turkey has kicked in, you’ll be looking forward to some relaxation and quality time with the trusty pipe! While we really don’t recommend using any tobacco products, you can still recall the old-timey look with this classic accessory.

Bow and Arrow

Bow and Arrow

Thankfully, you don’t have to hunt your own food (we hope!) but you can surely pretend to do so when you pick up this bow and arrow prop. Use it to complete your costume theme, or to let the younglings reenact a scene of their choosing. We think it’d be a good idea to have them play out a scene where everyone sets aside their toy weapons to enjoy the delicious turkey!

Well, there you have it! Many of our favorite Thanksgiving costumes for kids, and Thanksgiving outfits so adults can join in on the fun, too.
