We love celebrating the Fourth of July with fun picture books about America's Birthday!
Currently, my son is obsessed with fireworks. This is a cute fourth of July book that includes a grand fireworks show.
My boys also love parades. Last year, we found this super fun book idea from JDaniel4's mom.
The fourth of July is also a fun way to sneak in some learning. These books should help my boys learn about our country, our flag, and our pledge to the flag.
The Fourth of July (Independence Day) is one of my favorite holidays. I love that the only thing required for this holiday is picnics, water games, or laying around on blankets to watch fireworks. There are no lavish meals or presents to buy. We just get to relax, and the hubs gets a day off work! Now that's a holiday!
We're always looking for great books to enjoy? Do you have a favorite Fourth of July or fireworks book? Please share!
Those are great books! We read many of them last year. I especially like F is for Flag. Happy Independence Day and thanks for joining WMCIR!

ReplyDeleteThanks for the feature! You have lots of other great books linked up in that post as well!
DeleteWhat a great collection! We love Grandma Drove a Garbage Truck at my house.
ReplyDeleteI think we may have originally gotten that suggestion for that book from you a few years back! It has remained a favorite at our house too-- and not just for the 4th of July!
