June 14th is Flag Day – A day selected to celebrate the American flag.

If you would like to celebrate Flag Day by making and learning about the American flag, I have a post that has a lot of information here. In it you will find information and facts about the American flag, and an easy to make craft.

You may also want to make a flag of your own that represents you and/or your family. So grab some craft and drawing supplies and get creative!

• Choose your favorite colors or use the colors that represent you best. 

• Choose an icon, symbol, animal, object, etc. that represents you, or your family best, and add that to your flag as well.

• Consider making it an interesting shape.

• Consider making your flag first, then find out what each symbol and color means.
