Thanksgiving Words for Kids (Free Printable Lists)
Our free printable Thanksgiving Word Lists include seasonal words, thankful words, A-Z words, and more!
Thanksgiving is a wonderful time to teach children about gratitude, traditions, and the importance of coming together with family and friends. To help young learners connect with the holiday while building their vocabulary, we’ve created a special Thanksgiving word list. This list is divided into categories, from simple words for younger kids to more challenging words with definitions. Our Thanksgiving Word List provides a great way to help children with their spelling and vocabulary skills while celebrating the holiday.
Why Teach Thanksgiving Words?
Introducing children to Thanksgiving words can enrich their language skills while tapping into the excitement and creativity of the season. More challenging Thanksgiving-themed words like abundance and tradition can help grow your child’s vocabulary, while A-Z Thanksgiving words can help with practicing letter sounds.
By connecting new words with the activities and experiences children enjoy, such as Thanksgiving, they are often more likely to retain and use them.
Harder Thanksgiving Words with Definitions
This list includes Thanksgiving words that your child may not be familiar with, or perhaps they’ve heard them but aren’t sure what they mean or how to spell them. We’ve included definitions of each word to help children understand the meaning of each word. This list can also be used as spelling practice.
abundance: having a lot of something, more than you need.
aroma: a pleasant smell that you notice, especially when food is cooking.
autumn: the season between summer and winter when the leaves change color and fall from the trees. It’s also called fall.
baste: to pour or spread liquid, like melted butter or sauce, over food while it’s cooking to keep it moist and add flavor.
celebrate: to do something special for an important event, occasion, or holiday.
cornucopia: a symbol of abundance, often represented as a horn filled with fruits and vegetables.
gathering: a coming together of people for a specific purpose, often a social event or celebration.
harvest: the process of gathering crops from the fields.
leftovers: food that is not eaten during a meal and is saved to be eaten later.
recipe: a set of instructions that tells you how to make a particular dish or meal.
tradition: a belief, custom, or way of doing something that has been passed down through generations.
unity: the state of being united or joined as a whole, especially in a family or community.
xenial: relating to hospitality or the friendly reception of guests.
