President's Day Hats

Happy President's day!  I've tried to interest the girls in the meaning of this day, and they've absorbed some of it.  Josephine in particular is now excited to find George Washington on the one dollar bill and the quarter.  It sinks in bit by bit, right?  They're a little young to appreciate the significance of most of this history, but we made Lincoln hats this afternoon for a quick little craft and some coloring.  We used paper plates, black construction paper, and staples.  These were pretty thrown together, but the girls thought they were hilarious.  

And we read our favorite President book!
