A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving

A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving is a show to teach the meaning of Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving is a time to get together with friends and family and show what you are truly thankful for. From this a child might learn the origin and meaning behind this joyful time. Charlie Brown, Snoopy, Linus and Lucy help give a visual of what happened and how the pilgrims came from England on the Mayflower. 

            When our young characters embark on their trip to the unknown, as they begin happy their feelings begin to turn. They begin to feel sick and restless then a terrible storm hits forcing them into the cabins turning their spirits even more. Then to add to all that a bean breaks. When all hope is lost they push forward and hope for the best. Eventually when they arrive they are thrilled, then an epidemic hits and children have to do the work of the elders.

Yet again, when all hope is lost they push through and meet a strange looking person, an Indian, who teaches them the ways of the land. On November 21 be sure to thank the mighty travelers. Happy Thanksgiving!
