Independence Day...
June is nearly over and you know what that means... it's almost time for Independence Day. No, not the movie... I talking about the American holiday more commonly known as the 4th of July. Independence Day is is a federal holiday commemorating the adoption of the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1776, declaring independence from the Kingdom of Great Britain. Independence Day is commonly associated with fireworks, parades, barbecues, carnivals, picnics, concerts, baseball games, political speeches and ceremonies, and various other public and private events celebrating the history, government, and traditions of the United States.
There are some great online resources for crafts to help you celebrate with the kids in your care. Here are a few of my favorites:
If you are close and looking for someplace to go this weekend, I can recommend all the 4th of July festivities in my home town - Spicer, Minnesota.
As a last note of caution... if you, like many people, are celebrating with fireworks this year, use caution... I hope that you will have a safe and happy Independence Day.
