Thanksgiving is a U.S. national holiday and it is every year on the fourth Thursday of November. On Thanksgiving, family and friends come together and they give thanks for their blessings.

American Indians and the pilgrims started this tradition a long time ago. The pilgrims were the people who arrived in America in the year 1620 and the American Indians helped the pilgrims grow different types of crops when they arrived.

In the year 1621, (almost 400 years ago), all of them gathered together for a large meal to celebrate their survival. President Lincoln made this a national holiday.

Thanksgiving is a great holiday to come together with family and friends to say blessings and for them to be thankful for what they have.

Thanksgiving Day is a national holiday celebrated on various dates in the United States, Canada, some of the Caribbean islands, and Liberia. It began as a day of giving thanks and sacrifice for the blessing of the harvest and of the preceding year. Similarly named festival holidays occur in Germany and Japan. Thanksgiving is celebrated on the second Monday of October in Canada and on the fourth Thursday of November in the United States and Brazil, and around the same part of the year in other places. Although Thanksgiving has historical roots in religious and cultural traditions, it has long been celebrated as a secular holiday as well.

In the United States, most celebrate it for 3 days, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday because back in the past, Thanksgiving lasted 3 days. Which means three days of feasting and celebrating. That is why students in most schools get three days off, which are Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, to celebrate our past.

Most people feast for their ancestors. They feast on turkey, mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce, vegetables, and many other foods. Many people celebrate for different reasons and eat different foods. But there is one thing that all celebrations have in common, everyone comes together as family, friends, relatives, and sometimes even strangers. Thanksgiving is a holiday to celebrate the past and thank for what we have. Not everyone has the same Thanksgiving around the world. But for me, it is very special.

A child watches a mother move some chocolate while "Maxi" isn’t watching. A psychologist asks, "Where will Maxi look for the cho
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

The answer is theory of mind.

Explanation:

Theory of mind is a study concerned with the ability to imagine reality through the perspective of a different person. In the example, if the child answers that Maxi will look for the chocolate in the last place he (Maxi) saw it, he's likely developed theory of mind. This means he's able to understand Maxi didn't see the spot where his mother hid it, and thus he has no reason to look for it there.

In daily life, theory of mind is important to understand how other people feel and experience the world.
