HAPPY 250th BIRTHDAY, AMERICA!

Let’s Celebrate America’s 250^th Birthday!

Guess what? 

Did you know the United States is turning 250 years old?

That means we are celebrating America’s birthday which is defined as a Semiquincentennial! 

A long time ago, in 1776, the people who lived in the American colonies decided they wanted to be free

and make their own country.

They wrote something very important called the 

Declaration of Independence. 

It said that all people should be treated fairly

and have freedom.

Now, 250 years later, we celebrate by learning about our history and thinking about how we can be kind, helpful, 

and good citizens.

Just like a birthday is a time to celebrate and grow, America’s 250th birthday is a time for all of us to remember the past

and help make the future even better.

Happy 250th Birthday, America!
