About this word search

In the United States Thanksgiving falls on the fourth Thursday of November, and for many families the day keeps a familiar rhythm: the parade in the morning, football in the afternoon and the turkey somewhere in between. Canada celebrates earlier, on the second Monday of October.

A few words carry a small custom with them. With the Wishbone, two people pull on the dried bone and whoever keeps the larger piece makes a wish. Leftovers deserve a place too, since the sandwiches the next day are half the point for some.

The fourteen by fourteen grid hides words across, down and diagonally, never backwards. Leftovers and Thankful are good long words to start with. When the sheet is done, everyone at the table can name one thing they are thankful for this year.
