9 Ways to Celebrate Thanksgiving All Month Long

There’s really only one thing about celebrating Thanksgiving that’s less than perfection, and it’s the fact that we only get to celebrate it for one day. A mere 24 hours of delicious dishes, QT with family, cozying up on the couch for a football game, and reflecting on all the things you’re grateful for? It just doesn’t seem like enough. We think most anyone can agree that this occasion absolutely deserves an extension. Fear not, Thanksgiving revelers: There are, in fact, ways you can stretch all those good vibes into the rest of the month of November. Scroll down for some of our ideas, and leftovers won’t be the only things you’ll enjoy beyond Turkey Day itself.

1. Get into a daily gratitude practice. The beauty of this holiday is that all you’re expected to do — other than eat, of course — is reflect on all the things you’re thankful for. Why restrict this amazing practice to a single day of the month? Buy yourself a cute notebook and commit to writing at least five items that make you feel all warm and fuzzy inside at the beginning or end of each day. By the time Thanksgiving rolls around, you’ll be positively spilling over with gratitude.

2. Plan weekly volunteering dates with friends. When you start to consider long and hard all the reasons you have to be grateful, you may also find yourself realizing that there are plenty of others out there who don’t have the same. Gather a group of reliable pals and choose a local food bank or soup kitchen whose services help spread joy to members of your community who are less fortunate than you are. Pick one day of every week of November to spend volunteering there as a group. (And, hey, nobody says you have to stop after the holiday, even if your other commitments mean scaling back.)

3. Write notes of thanks to your loved ones. Take your feelings of gratitude one step further by setting aside time this month to write letters of appreciation to the friends and family members you appreciate most. And yes — we are talking good old-fashioned snail mail. Get your letters out the door at least a week prior to your holiday gathering, and when you see the recipients at Thanksgiving dinner they’ll walk through the door knowing how you really feel about them.

4. Watch feel-good movies. It’s not quite time to start queuing up the bona-fide winter holiday classics, but you can ease yourself into your December viewing marathon by watching cozy movies that will get you in the mindset of love and gratitude. Think The Blind Side, You’ve Got Mail, Good Will Hunting, or Stepmom. If you really want to go big, try A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving.

5. Limit your screen time until December. One of the beautiful things about sitting down to Thanksgiving dinner is that it gives everyone a good reason to set the usual distractions aside and focus on what really matters. Capture that feeling all month long by committing to reduced screen time until the first of December. Putting your phone down and spending more time engaging with those around you will give you that much more to be grateful for come Turkey Day.

6. Create the ultimate Thanksgiving dinner playlist. Designing the perfect selection of songs to entertain all of your loved ones for the Thanksgiving celebration is no easy feat. So take your time doing it, and add just a few tracks each day. Stretching the process out will help build anticipation for the holiday itself and give you the space to contemplate an awesome playlist. Sounds like a win-win method to us.

7. Practice your recipes. The only thing that’s not to love about Thanksgiving dinner is that it’s over so fast. You and your family members spend hours in the kitchen, only to find that all of your delicious food has been gobbled down in 60 minutes or less, and that’s it until next year. But there’s no rule that says you can’t eat “Thanksgiving” food on other days, so you might as well get a jump on any recipes you’re contributing to the feast by taking some practice runs earlier in the month. You’ll extend the culinary experience and feel that much more confident about recipes that are new to you (or only get pulled out once a year).

8. Set your table early for the feast. Who says you can’t have a beautiful Thanksgiving table set up for more than just day-of — or that you can only have a beautiful Thanksgiving table if you’re hosting the feast yourself? (For the record, anyone who says that is boring.) Pull out those fancy plates and candlesticks, autumnal tablecloths, and mini-pumpkins on November 1. You’ll be reminded of the cozy festivities ahead every time you walk by your table.

9. Host weekly mini-Thanksgivings. You’ve heard of Friendsgiving, of course, but if your goal really is to extend your Thanksgiving experience, you might consider organizing four small feasts instead of one big one. Every weekend in November, invite a different set of friends over for a potluck of sides dishes and appetizers only. (Sides are kind of the best part of Thanksgiving, anyway.)

I've officially entered my flannel pajamas era because these 30+ year-old bones get cold. If it's below 63 degrees at home, my teeth start chattering...much to minor annoyance of my very warm-blooded fiancé. Usually I snuggle next to him like he's a bear when I'm that cold, but I can't have my way all the time. So, cute and cozy pajamas it is!

As luck would have it, I have the deets on the best winter options that may find their way to your front door. Let's go down the list, shall we?

The Best Winter Flannel Pajamas To Buy ASAP

L.L. Bean Scotch Plaid Flannel Pajamas

Plaid and the holidays are the first thing that comes to mind when I think about flannel pajamas. This top and pants set set is super soft because of its Portuguese cotton fabric. It''ll almost feel like you're enveloping yourself in a cozy blanket sans any potential mishaps when you need to use the restroom.

Hanna Andersson

Hanna Andersson Holiday Flannel Nightshirt

I love ditching pants when it gets too warm under my weighted blanket, but I think it'll be 10x easier to button up a flannel nightshirt. This lightweight beauty is still going to give you the cozy feel without restricting your legs AND you'll be able to iron it on cool (opposite side only).

Old Navy

Old Navy Flannel Pajama Shirt Dress

Again with the flannel shirt dress option? Um, yes. This option is for anyone who loves an orange and purple moment instead of green. Also, the hemline is just a tad longer than the prior one so you won't be as likely to flash anyone when you're putting the finishing touches on your Christmas tree's skirt.

Target

Wondershop Plaid Flannel Pajamas

I just had to include a pair of red and white flannel pajamas because they scream "Christmas" without any of the obvious decor designs. I love that they're a part of a matching family set so you can schedule a pajama-themed sleepover on Christmas Eve.

P.J. Salvage

Have you ever seen a bunch of koalas get ready for Christmas? Not to worry because this flannel pajamas set is ready to change that for you. They're literally all over the top and tie-waist bottoms in all their festive glory. There's a koala climbing a decorated Christmas tree and a mom plus her baby hanging out in a cute wreath! What's not to love?

Bed Head

Bed Head PJs Hit The Slopes Portuguese Flannel Pajamas

Keep it traditional and celebrate the evergreen vibes of the holidays. These pajamas are especially for those who usually hit the slopes but can't this year. You'll feel like you're close to the holiday activity you love the most without completely having any FOMO feelings.

Pajamagram

Pajamagram Apres Ski Flannel Pajamas

If you do plan to go skiing this year outside of The Sims 4 Seasons Expansion Pack — yes, I know you're still binging that game — here's a cute pair of flannel pajamas you have to wear at least once. Just look at the cute gondola lifts!

The best flannel pajamas if you're a cat mom who loves Christmas

PrintFresh

PrintFresh Flannel Nightgown

I have a special appreciation for the cat distribution system and the lucky moms who find their feline matches because I know how personalized it is. If you and your fur baby are locked in, you absolutely deserve to walk around your space in this jolly big cat nightgown.

The best flannel pajamas for the "I'm just a girl" crowd

P.J. Salvage

P.J. Salvage Ribbons & Bows Flannel PJ Set

If you've memorized No Doubt's "Just a Girl," and love belting it during karaoke night, you'll appreciate this cute ribbons & bows PJ set. The labels are and bows are outlined in red to offset the Pepto-Bismol pink base.

The best flannel pajamas for leopard print lovers

Victoria's Secret

Victoria's Secret Flannel Long Pajama Set

You don't have to wear leopard print in public if you won't want to, but don't be shy about wearing this set at home. You'll feel sultry with your glass of wine, charcuterie board, and remote in your hand.

Aerie

Aerie Off-Duty Flannel Trouser PJ Pants

You could also skip the matching moment and wear your favorite oversized t-shirt with these flannel pants. They're equally cozy and won't feel overpowering if you don't like that much pattern.

The best flannel pajamas to wear if pants make you feel itchy at night

Macy's

Adore Me Plus Size PJ Set

If you're not a fan of pants or nightgowns, these plus size pajamas will get you right! The shorts have an elastic waist so you'll have plenty of breathing room. Also, the entire set is made of cotton and satin which sounds like a great time if you ask me.

The best flannel pajamas if you crave the simple things in life

J.Crew

J.Crew Flannel Pajamas

It's not fair for my minimalist girls to not have a pair of flannel pajamas to choose from so this is for you. They're 100% cotton, have an elastic waist, and are machine-washable! Did I mention they're also loose-fitting if you're uninterested in your pajamas hugging your body? Oh yeah, these are for you.

The best flannel pajamas for kids

GAP Factory

babyGAP 100% Recycled Flannel Pajamas

Call it my mom instincts, but I can't forget kids! These cute plaid flannel pajamas are a great option for them to wear on Christmas Eve and the morning they get to open their presents. They're made of a soft jersey knit that'll keep up with a kid's moves, including bounding down the stairs or doing somersaults off the couch because they're excited for the holidays.

Petite Plume

Petite Plume Kid's Flannel Pajama Set

There's at least one princess in the family and it may be your little sister, niece, or daughter. No matter who she is, she'll appreciate these pretty pink flannel pajamas. They're free of harsh chemicals and are flame-resistant in case little one likes to sit close to the fireplace.

Britney Spears has been making headlines since the '90s, meaning her kids are no strangers to the spotlight. Despite how much they used to be with her everywhere, things haven't been smooth sailing for the family following the termination of the author's conservatorship in 2021. Still, there seems to be a lot love between Britney and her sons, and we were thrilled to learn she recently reunited with her youngest!

Keep reading for everything we know about Britney Spears' kids in 2024.

How many children does Britney Spears have?

Thanks to frequent paparazzi shots of Britney Spears and her kids, we know that she has two sons! Sean Preston Federline was born September 14, 2005, making him 19 years old while his brother Jayden James Federline was born September 12, 2006 and just turned 18. Where did the time go?

Who did she have kids with?

Britney Spears shares her sons with her ex-husband Kevin Federline. They got married on October 6, 2004 after a few months of dating, and their whirlwind romance led to the birth of their two sons (via Business Insider). The couple later divorced on July 30, 2007, but Kevin has spoken fondly of their relationship throughout the years.

He actually told PEOPLE in 2008 how much he loved the time they were together. "I pretty much realized that I was giving my life to her, and I was doing it without question," he said. "It was just something that was meant to happen. And probably my greatest moment with her is having our two sons."

Do Sean and Jayden live with Britney Spears?

Gerardo Mora/Getty Images for Planet Hollywood Observatory

According to PEOPLE, Sean and Jayden currently live in Hawaii with their dad, Kevin as of 2023. And according to Kevin's attorney Mark Vincent Kaplan, there's a specific reason why their sons were excited to move. "It's an opportunity for Kevin and his wife, and the boys are ready to get away from the L.A. microscope."

If you remember, Kevin gained "sole custody" of Preston and Jayden in 2008 due to Britney Spear's "mental breakdown," (via US Weekly).

There was reportedly a rift between Britney Spears and her sons after her conservatorship ended in 2021, but she just reunited with Jayden! A Page Six insider revealed "they have been spending a lot of time together,” while a source told People, "spending time together has made her happy."

What have Sean and Jayden said about their mom?

Kevin Winter/Getty Images

In 2022 Sean and Jayden shared their thoughts about their tense relationship with Britney. The Daily Mail reported Jayden said, "It's just going to take a lot of time and effort. I just want her to get better mentally. When she gets better I really want to see her again." Given Britney's breakdown and the news surrounding her conservatorship over the years, we can only imagine how much the public nature of their lives affected her kids.

What's the current status of Britney's relationship with her sons?

Jamie McCarthy/Getty Images

There have been several ups and downs throughout the years, but Britney hasn't held back from publicly sharing thoughts about her kids. USA Today shared that Britney and Jayden have recently reconciled in L.A. which comes amidst reports she's finished paying child support for him (via TMZ).

However, Kevin's attorney Mark Vincent Kaplan says they're not sure what's happening behind the scenes. "If there has been a reconciliation it’s news to Kevin," he told TMZ.

Dick Clark's New Year’s Rockin’ Eve is hosted by Ryan Seacrest.
