The countries call: Know your liberty

The 3^rd step I mentioned in teaching constitution for kids is as follow:

“Explore the beginnings by learning about the buildup of the association, gaining independence from the British, and the complete principles of individual freedom.”

We know that United States of America is the oldest democracy in the world and it emerged as the world’s number one economy in the 20^th century, keeping its head up to the challenges it faced.  However, there were moments in history which forced the country walk through the thorns. The world wars and economic crisis in the midst of the 20^th century tested her ability to withstand.

Conveying the values of the Constitution and making the Constitution for kids, our future leaders, is essential to make them aware of the history and social structure of our great country.  Understanding history is like finding a treasure and can be shared by telling kids the fascinating stories of history:

• Learning the stories of the fight for freedom from the British to the Constitutional privileges we enjoy today is important for children and can be made easy with the help of books, videos and informative CD’s.  At nights when children ask for stories, tell them the stories of George Washington or James Madison and their struggles to design the structure of the current fabulous rich country.
•  The day July 4, 1776 was a golden day for the US history. Every year the day is celebrated proudly throughout the United States of America and by Americans abroad. Stories based on the actual incidents are available and provide a simple but informative way which helps to make the narration of Declaration of Independence for kids interesting.
• The courageous stories of George Washington.
•  The dramatic preparation of the Declaration of Independence carried out by Jefferson and signed by fifty six delegates in a perplexing background. These incidents are the catalysts that enabled US citizens to lead their life in liberty and prosperity.
