This week is Memorial Day Weekend, followed by Flag Day and then 4th of July. We love books to go along with holidays and also love history books for kids. So it was fun to work on a list of 25 patriotic books for kids. The list includes fiction, non fiction and books for all ages: patriotic board books all the way up to historical chapter books! I tried to put the list in order from little kids on up to bigger kids.

Pink Chicken’s Red, White & Blue

All of the adorable patriotic clothes in the post are from Pink Chicken. They have a special red, white and blue line this season and it’s summery, festive and super comfortable as usual. I’ve been shopping their clothes for the kids for summertime for about 7 years now and this might be my favorite line yet (you all know I love patriotic kids clothes!).
