Happy Independence Day!

In the 1700’s, the people living in the United States, were living under British rule. The colonists, did not like Britain taxing them nor making laws for them.

On July 4, 1776, a group of leaders gathered and decided to become independent of British rule.

They wrote a document called the Declaration of the United States. It announced that they were to be a new country, the United States of America, no longer under British rule.

So, to this day we celebrate with parades, firework displays, family gatherings and cookouts! We celebrate our independence as a country!
Enjoy this day!
