Caillou: Caillou's Holidays (2002)
Caillou loves the holidays - and Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas are his favorites! From the popular PBS series. Not rated. (I really don't like that whinny kid!)
A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving (1973)
When Peppermint Patty and a group of hungry pals show up at Charlie Brown's house expecting food, Charlie Brown is too wishy-washy to refuse. With the help of Linus, Snoopy and Woodstock a very unusual feast is prepared. Not rated.
A Day for Thanks on Walton's Mountain (1982) The Walton household has begun to branch out from its mountain roots, and their time-honored Thanksgiving tradition is threatened. Young Elizabeth takes action to reunite the family, and on the last Thursday in November, the heartfelt tradition lives on. Starring Ralph Waite, Jon Walmsley, and Judy Norton Taylor; directed by Harry Harris. Not rated.
Hoboken Chicken Emergency (1984)

Mouse on the Mayflower (1969)
An animated fantasy that tells the story of a brave little mouse who helped the Pilgrims survive both the dangerous sea voyage and the cold New England winter, while staying on peaceful terms with their Indian neighbors. Not rated.
A Rugrats Thanksgiving (1997)
Determined to protect Mr. Turkey from the serving platter, the Rugrats uncover the real meaning of the first American holiday. Not rated. (questionable :)
Seasons of Giving (1999)
Animated Winnie the Pooh movie. The adventure begins once upon a cold and blustery day in the Hundred Acre Wood when Pooh, Piglet, Tigger, and Rabbit set out on a quest for winter--a favorite season they seem to have missed. And that leads to a wild search for the perfect ingredients for a festive Thanksgiving feast, and finally to Christmas, and a surprise visit from a special friend. Based on the Winnie the Pooh works by A.A. Milne and E.H. Shepard. Rated G.
Thanksgiving (1994)
Thanksgiving is a time to remember how much we depend on and are thankful for the earth's bounty. This video explores the story of the Pilgrims in Plimouth Plantation and depicts Nanticoke tribe dancers, and concludes with a craft project using walnut shells to make miniature Mayflower boats. Grades K-4.
Thank you, Sarah: the woman who saved Thanksgiving (2002) We The People of the United States ... almost lost Thanksgiving. Thankfully, Sarah Hale, a magazine editor and author, believed in its importance, and persuaded President Lincoln to transform Thanksgiving Day into a national holiday. Based on the book by Laurie Halse Anderson. Grades K-5.
William Bradford: the first Thanksgiving. (1992) Animated biography of William Bradford, the leader of the Pilgrims at Plymouth, and the founder of Thanksgiving. Not rated.
