  Activities and Ideas for BookFlix Subscribers February 2012   
Celebrate Presidents’ Day with BookFlix 

  
 
On February 20th children and adults around the United States will celebrate 
Presidents’ Day.  Here are a few ideas on how to use BookFlix to teach children 
about our past presidents and why we honor them every year: 

	* Use the pair So You Want to Be President? and George Washington to introduce 
children to the role of the President.
	* Ask children if they would ever want to be president.  Have them explain why 
or why not.
	* Talk with the group about qualities that make a good leader, such as honest, 
hard-working, and thoughtful.  Keep a record of these traits on a colorful 
poster.
	* Have each child create an illustration that captures an important moment in 
George Washington’s life that they learned about while reading George 
Washington.
For additional Presidents’ Day activities check out the BookFlix pair Just a Few 
Words, Mr. Lincoln and Abraham Lincoln.
