Thursday is just a good day to give thanks.
While this may make planning around the holiday easier every year, many people don’t seem to know why the holiday is scheduled this way.
This year, Thanksgiving will fall on November 25, which is the fourth Thursday of the month. This has been the way that the date for the holiday has been determined since 1941. Before this, the holiday was traditionally held on the last Thursday of November.
