We met with some friends for a patriotic time of fun...
We started with a story from The Voice of the Matryrs kid's site Kids of Courage about a young boy living in Iraq and the persecution he faced there. Then, we prayed thanking God for our freedom and for the persecuted church around the world.
We focused on The Star Spangled Banner...I found 6 different versions of the song on Grooveshark. We listened to each one and talked about their distinguishing characteristics before picking our favorites. We talked about proper etiquette during the performance of our National Anthem.
I found these books at the library...
