American Girl Doll Thanksgiving Story

We will have both a Thanksgiving and Christmas story coming up. Also a Yule special will be featured because we are Pagans.

My dolls learn the importance of appreciating what you have, as little as it may be. And good things come to those who do good deeds. Learn to be grateful and you will find more to be grateful for.

My dolls are actually vegetarians and for Thanksgiving they honor turkeys instead of eating them. My dolls live on a farm and they are raising a pet turkey. Merchants from town offer money in exchange for the plump turkey, but my dolls refuse. Gibblet is here to stay; animals are friends not food. But where will you get your protein from? There are other great sources of protein. We will find a way around it because our morals and respect for animals are greater than that.

My girls prepare what seems like the first Thanksgiving soy meat dinner. There's stuffing mixed with soy meat, cranberry sauce, mashed potatoes and gravy, buttery biscuits, carrots and green beans, and some slices of soy meat and tofu. Also apple cider tea and soda. And we can't forget, pumpkin and apple pie for dessert!

Their Native American friend "Songbird" comes to celebrate and in exchange takes them to her camp and shows them how they celebrate. They dance around the fire, eat food, laugh and play.

My dolls realize they have a lot to be thankful for and take the time to appreciate everything. We take the time to be thankful, first and foremost of Mother Earth and all the beautiful nature and animals around us. Then we give thanks for life and the positive energy flowing around us. We rejoice in spirit and hug each other. We make a list of things we are thankful for and put it on the wall, decorated with hearts and autumn leaves. Every time we are feeling sad, we look up to remind ourselves of all we have and should be grateful for. <3
