It’s always fun to bake cookies, cupcakes or any dessert that you love with friends or family. The best feeling is when your house is filled with the warm fragrance from the oven and when you finally get to enjoy your homemade dessert with the ones you love.

2. Meet up with old friends you haven’t seen since the summer

After summer when school starts, it’s hard to make time to hang out with friends. Now it’s a perfect time to catch up with them. You can go on fun adventures together or just relax at someone’s house. Spending time with friends can always lighten your mood and brighten your day.

3. Watch the Thanksgiving Parade

Every year, the Macy’s parade airs on NBC at 9 AM-noon.  From here, you can watch legendary childhood characters zoom across the skies in your pajamas.  After that, there is a dog show, which is a fun show in itself.

4. Have a friendsgiving

Thanksgiving is all about sharing and being thankful for one another, it’s always fun to do it with friends. Get a group of your friends together and have a Thanksgiving meal. If you and your friends are not talented cooks, you could find a restaurant that’s open and have a great night out with all your friends.

5. Go Black Friday shopping

Every Friday after Thanksgiving, Black Friday takes place at any mall. You can get really good deals on necessities or Christmas gifts. You can go with friends or family too which always makes it fun!
