Memorial Day Ideas for Kids

Memorial Day is a thoughtful time to honor American heroes.

How can young children observe this day?  



Kids can realize that Americans are safer because our soldiers 
will protect them anywhere in the world.   And that, sadly, 
some of those soldiers will give their lives fighting to help us.

Kids can go to a Memorial Day parade, or watch one on TV.  
Or go to a Memorial Day event such as boarding an aircraft carrier and


meeting active soldiers.


They can visit a veteran at a Veteran’s hospital or nursing home,


and take homemade food or cookies, a book to read, 
or a homemade card.

A number chart robot is a great way to integrate math and language arts with social studies.

By all means, have a picnic or barbeque with the family.  
And remind kids that Memorial Day is also a day to reflect on the heroes


who gave the ultimate sacrifice so we can be free to enjoy the day.
