The Fourth of July (or anytime) is the perfect time to teach children to value the country they live in and their way of life. We hope you'll use our activities and suggestions to reinforce a lesson on citizenship, instilling in your children a sense of pride in being part of the USA!
Hip, hip hooray for the USA!
We are proud of it, it's true.
Hip, hip hooray for the USA
And our flag -- red, white, and blue.
