Since 4th of July is right around the corner, here is some insightful information we would like to share from pbs.org: Head to the library or local bookstore and pick up a children’s book about July 4. There are a number of engaging books for small children, including some that use animals to tell the story. Marisa Conner, coordinator of Youth Services for Baltimore County Public Libraries in Maryland, recommends reading a book about the holiday before and after the celebration to make the experience more tangible for children. Whenever you link a book to what’s happening in your community and culture, it brings the event to life, Conner says. If you are going to a 4th of July parade, then read a book about parades before and after you go. Reading about the event makes it more real for them.
