Not everyone’s Thanksgiving looks like a big family table — and that’s okay. 💛
There are so many ways to find connection, comfort, and gratitude this season.
Here are a few ideas that celebrate togetherness in all its forms:
🥣 1. Friendsgiving Brunch — Skip the big dinner and host a cozy morning potluck instead.
🎲 2. Gratitude & Games Night — Play board games and share one thing you’re thankful for.
🧤 3. Volunteer Together — Connection grows when we give back.
📚 4. Book Lovers’ Gathering — Bring a favorite book to swap and sip hot cocoa.
🎬 5. Movie Marathon — Pick “found family” films that warm the heart.
🎨 6. Craft & Comfort Day — Create art, bake, or journal together.
🌳 7. Park Picnic — Fresh air + snacks = a simple way to connect.
💻 8. Virtual Thanksgiving — Join friends or a community group online.
🍰 9. Dessert-Only Party — Sweet treats, laughter, and zero stress.
💛 10. Self-Care Thanksgiving — Take time for reflection, rest, and gratitude.
However you spend the holiday, remember; connection doesn’t have to fit a tradition.
You belong, and your way of celebrating matters. 🌾
