- Hi, welcome to Elmo's World.
Guess what Elmo is wondering about today?
Wait for it. (twinkling)
(giggling) Wait for it.
(giggles)
Thanksgiving!
Elmo's friends are celebrating together.
- [Friends] Happy Thanksgiving, Elmo.
- Happy Thanksgiving, you guys.
(giggles)
Right, Elmo wants to learn all about Thanksgiving.
Oh, let's ask Elmo's friend, Smarty.
Let's call her together.
- [All] Oh, Smarty.
(twinkles)
- Hi, Elmo.
Look, I'm dressed like a Pilgrim.
- Wow, that's perfect, Smarty,
because Elmo wants to learn all about Thanksgiving.
- Well, what do we do to learn something new?
- [All] We look it up.
- Searching for Thanksgiving.
Here we go.
(light music)
Thanksgiving is a holiday
when family and friends get together for a meal.
People bring all kinds of food like turkey, stuffing,
and my favorite, pumpkin pie.
It's a time for sharing food and being kind to others.
On Thanksgiving people give thanks
for all the things they're grateful for.
So what are you thankful for, Elmo?
- Well, Elmo's thankful for lots and lots of things,
especially friends like Smarty. (giggles)
- Aw, me too, Elmo. (giggles)
Happy Thanksgiving, Elmo.
- Happy Thanksgiving, see you later.
(giggles)
Hey, that gives Elmo an idea.
Let's play a game together.
Yeah. (giggles)
Come on, come on.
(light music) (giggling)
Look this family is having Thanksgiving dinner.
Boy, Elmo wonders if we can find the pie
that has enough slices for everybody.
First, let's count how many people there are.
- [All] One, two, three, four, five, six.
- [Elmo] Six people all together.
So which pie has enough slices for everybody?
Is it this one? (ding)
It has one, two, three slices.
- [Children] No.
- [Girl] Not everyone has a slice.
- [Elmo] Oh, well how 'bout this pie? (ding)
It has one, two, three, four, five, six slices.
- [Boy] That's right, there's a slice for each person.
- Yay, we did it.
Happy Thanksgiving everybody.
Boy, Elmo loves Thanksgiving.
Oh and that makes Elmo wonder even more.
What does Mr. Noodle do on Thanksgiving?
Hey, let's ask him, okay?
Hey, Mr. Noodle!
- [Children] Mr. Noodle! - (giggles)
Hi, Mr. Noodle. (horn honking)
Mr. Noodle, Elmo was wondering,
do you celebrate Thanksgiving?
(trumpet sound)
You do?
Oh! (giggles)
Show us how you celebrate!
- [Children] Yeah, show us how!
- [Elmo] Where's he going?
What? Mr. Noodle!
- [Girl] That's a birthday cake.
(noisemaker buzzes)
- [Elmo] That's not Thanksgiving,
that's how you celebrate a birthday.
Try again, Mr. Noodle.
Oh, nice cake though.
- [Boy] He's wearing a costume!
- [Elmo] Is that how you celebrate Thanksgiving?
- [Girl] That's how you celebrate Halloween.
He's going trick-or-treating.
- [Elmo] Mr. Noodle, that's how you dress for Halloween.
Show us how you celebrate Thanksgiving, Mr. Noodle.
(squeaking)
Oh, he's having Thanksgiving dinner.
- [Girl] That's right!
- [Elmo] That's right, Mr. Noodle,
now you're doing it, good job.
Thank you for showing us
how to celebrate Thanksgiving, Mr. Noodle.
(panting)
Oh, you too, Schmoodle.
