4th of July Parade.
Hooray for the Red, White and Blue!
ADDED July 01, 2008

This Friday is the 4th of July and I am sure everybody that reads this blog will be relaxing poolside with a cool beverage all day, with no kids to take care of. If this pipe dream is not a reality for you and your kids are saying, “I am bored what do we do now?” Why not organize a parade?
At my house usually there are many kids from several different families so organizing a parade is rather easy. However if you find yourself short on participants even a family of four can create a very entertaining parade.
First, think of a theme for the Parade. Something inspirational like, Freedom, Liberty or Today is Fun.
Second chose a Grand Marshall. Someone who is inspirational like a baby or a pet.
Third make an order for the participants. Youngest to oldest usually works best.

Fourth turn the kids loose into the garage to collect skateboards, bikes or really anything with wheels to be in the parade.
Fifth have the kids spend a few minutes decorating their bikes and bodies for the parade.
And sixth sit back and enjoy the parade.
