Memorial Day



As we cookout, relax and enjoy this holiday together with our families, we should also remember what this day is truly about - honoring the HEROES who have given their lives for our freedom.

Whether you're interested in helping your kids learn more about today's holiday or just need some things to keep them occupied at the family gathering, here are some links to various Memorial Day activities from around the web:

BrainPOP: My go-to source for quick lessons on a variety of topics. Use the large button in the sidebar over there on the right side of this page or click here to see today's Featured Video.

Veterans in My Family Activity: A great idea for kids to learn about family members who have served in the military. Check it out here.

Memorial Day Printables: A variety of printable puzzles can be found here on usmemorialday.org.

Have a great day!
