Hey Pandas, What Are Your Weird And Fun Thanksgiving Traditions? (Closed)

the teenagers barrying me in jenga blocks and playing jenga with me (im young, so im smol)

All 15 of my family members come over and we all put way more food on our plates than we can actually eat. That’s our tradition and it’s awesome

According to my husband the way my family does Thanksgiving is unusual. It's an all day food affair. We don't do dinner, we start with afternoon lunch, like 2pm or so, then play games, hang out, eat pie, watch movies etc, and once dinner time rolls around and we start getting peckish again we go in for round two.
Oh and my childhood best friend is Canadian, so we would go to each other's houses for our respective feast days every year (their's is in Oct) and have a sleepover. And it would just be me and her who would go to each other's Thanksgiving, the rest of my family never went to her's or her's to mine.

Normally, every year for BOTH Thanksgiving and Christmas, two of our very close family friends would hold parties. Of course, this year, with COVID, that never happened. So, instead, we had turkey and whatnot at home and watched 2020 Mulan, which has great special effects and acting, but the entire plot, quite honestly, in my opinion, was warped too much and makes some historical sense, aside from the witch.

We don't celebrate Thanksgiving where I'm from but we do celebrate christmas(my favorite time of the year). Every Christmas, my mum cooks a lot of food. We have this ridulously huge pot that we use only during Christmas. She would cook a variety of meals which would take about half a day. My favorite part is where we get to share the food with friends, families and neighbors and even strangers we don't know. Sometimes people are embarrassed to come over, so we take the food over to their houses (sometimes, they're streets away) and smiles on their faces just makes me look forward to Christmas every year. And yes, it will happen this year. I'm so excited🤗🤗

My daughter-in-law plans for a month for an amazing meal that she and my son cook and host for myself and my son's father and his wife. It is always glorious and delish!! We play games with the grandbabies while food is prepared and then go home with to go plates. Love all of them!!

Usually we all go to my sister's house spend all day cooking a big turkey feast, including baking dessert, then once everyone's done eating, we all chip in to clean up, then we sit and eat our dessert and play multiple rounds of Gin Rummy until we get sleepy, then it's double, then triple point games

Not during, but after Thanksgiving it is traditional in my family to watch The Muppet Christmas Carol. My dad says it “Marks the beginning of the holidays”. This was my little bros first year watching it and he really liked it!
