President’s Day is almost here. While the kids get a day off of school, which I am sure they are happy about, it is also a great time to teach the kids some of the history of the United States. While they may not be able to quote the Gettysburg address when you are done, or absorb everything you tell them, they will at least get something out of it.

Here are a few President’s Day activities that you can do with the kids for President’s Day.
