This is my favorite holiday because you get to dress up in a costume! When you are a young kid, you go to each house in your neighborhood on Halloween night, knock on the door, and say "Trick or Treat!" and they give you candy. This is a picture of my friends and I from Halloween last year! We dressed up as the Scooby Doo Gang. ]]> 2021-09-23 13:31:52 UTC https://padlet.com/laurenlizpetree/312gr3xv7f5mc352/wish/1762995867 Holidays in America! https://padlet.com/laurenlizpetree/312gr3xv7f5mc352/wish/1763083884 In the States, roda dagar/ festivities are called holidays! My favorite holiday is Thanksgiving. This is a time in our country to celebrate all that we have and to be thankful for friends and family. The whole day is spent with the ones you love (in this picture it's my nieces) eating fall foods and playing games. This is my favorite holiday because it teaches us to be thankful and it's a great time to get to see family. I also like this holiday because every year my dad and I spend time cooking food, and that time is really special to me. It's always celebrated on the 4th Thursday of November and the day after is Black Friday. To prepare for Christmas, lots of stores have crazy sales and people buy lots of presents! ]]> 2021-09-23 13:58:12 UTC https://padlet.com/laurenlizpetree/312gr3xv7f5mc352/wish/1763083884
