tuesday, november 11th, marks veteran's day. most schools are closed in observance, so here's how to spend the day with your kids...
locate a veteran's hospital near you:
chose one of the following, or make up your own:
bring flowers.
bake and drop off yummies.
bring a deck of cards and play GO FISH with a vet.
prepare a joke or song.
just go and meet some heroic people, shake their hand and thank 'em.
the lesson: teaching appreciation and acknowledgement of others makes a real difference in the type of people we are raising.
