I know our kids will be off school here in central Texas so I thought I’d try to give you some books and activities to use for President’s Day for kids.
Did you know that President’s Day was meant as only a celebration of George Washington’s birthday, but these days many people celebrate both Washington and Abraham Lincoln because they both had birthdays in February? The following books and activities will help kids learn more about George Washington, Abraham Lincoln and just the idea of what a president is in general.
