The best/most rewarding Thanksgiving I can recall is the year I took the family to volunteer at the local diner that was preparing meals for the homeless. Everyone there was like family, well not really, because there was no fighting, but there were a lot of laughs and plenty of thankful people. I highly recommend taking the kids to a church or shelter and letting them participate in cooking or serving the meal to truly thankful people who really need and appreciate it. I guarantee no matter how much they kick and scream in the beginning about not wanting to go they will come away with some great memories.
