Happy President's Day!
Personally, I'm really tired of hearing the word president, but I realize this is still an important holiday and one that a lot of homeschoolers and educators need materials for. And as I worked on a new printable featuring the inspirational quotes of past presidents, I was reminded again that despite all of their flaws, we have had leaders who truly strive to help our citizens and our national treasures.
So today is a roundup of great resources available for celebrating and learning about President's Day!
