When is american thanksgiving? what days do you guys get off? do the kids get off school?

Thanksgiving in America is celebrated on the 4th Thursday of November. This has been celebrated in this manner since the 1860's when then President Abraham Lincoln made it a National Holiday. Typically, people are given Thanksgiving day off, and some are also given the next day (Friday) following Thanksgiving off. The Friday after Thanksgiving is typically the biggest Christmas shopping day of the year. Many stores, malls, etc, open as early as 4:00 AM on that day and offer specials to attract shoppers. Kids are typically given off Thanksgiving Day, and the Friday after Thanksgiving.

thanksgiving is tomorrow, 11-22-07, it's always the fourth thursday in november...i'm in oklahoma(usa) and i think most working people get thursday and friday off and the kids get out of school wednesday, thursday, and friday.

My school gave us a day of Wendsday(today), Thursday, Friday and of corse the weekend, thats what we got for a thangsgiving vacation.

Thanksgiving is November 22nd. (That's Tomorrow!) :-) Yes, kids get the day off and the day after Thanksgiving too.

It's different every year, but it's always towards the end of November on a Thursday. Not everybody gets off. Most stores are closed, but supermarkets are usually open. It's a Federal holiday, so there is no mail and all government buildings are closed. Yes, the kids usually get off the entire weekend.

Tomorrow the 22nd is Thanksgiving here in the USA....the kids usually have off from school on Thanksgiving Day and Friday....so do most offices on both days.....since Friday here is the USA is the biggest shopping day before Christmas...."Black Friday"!!! Stores literally open up at 12AM!!! ALot of people get up at like 3AM and go shopping until 10AM for some really fantastic bargains.

thanksgiving is the 4th thursday in november. I got off at the end of the day on tuesday the 20th.

tomorrow and the schools usually are out wed. thurs. and fri, so are most jobs.

Thanksgiving falls on the third Thursday of every November, the kids get a week off I believe, and the adults also get the day off unless they do not work full time, and the company they work for doesn't give part time employees holidays.
