Teach Grandchildren About July 4th

My father, a WWII veteran, was thrilled on Memorial Day when his grandchildren were able to explain the significance of the holiday. On July 4th, why not remind your grandchildren of the true meaning of Independence Day? If you want to do it while sharing a July 4th picnic or barbecue with them, that's okay, too. You may want to get the grandchildren in on the food preparation with these kid-friendly July 4th recipes. We won't be doing many fireworks this year due to dry conditions where we live. If your celebration will include fireworks, review this video about fireworks safety first. However you choose to celebrate, keep it safe and have fun!
