Happy 4th of July
July 4th is not only my Mom's Birthday but also the countries and the day we Declared Independence from Great Britain. There are plenty of Independence Day activities throughout the country that are perfect for families of all ages and sizes. No matter how your family chooses to celebrate America's birthday, make sure kids have fun and share some or all of these books about the country's special celebration.
