Looking for a Flag Day picture book that can also double as a Fourth of July kids book? If you’re not familiar with my children’s book The Flag Keeper, details are below. In addition, if you’re seeking a patriotic activity to do with your children, I invite you to download a PDF of a word search inspired by The Flag Keeper. The word search features vocabulary words that are included in the story, such as halyard, spotlight and etiquette.
You can download the puzzle here.
Elizabeth may be a little bear, but she treats the American flag with big respect. After Dad leaves for a trip, Elizabeth pledges to raise the flag all by herself and follow all of the flag etiquette rules that her father has taught her. However, her dad never told her what to do if the flag gets dirty or the police show up. Teaches children about U.S. flag etiquette through a fiction story, flag facts, activity idea, and discussion questions.
It is available in paperback, as an e-book, as part of the Teddy Bear Town Children’s Bundle, and as an audiobook for Audible. You can find all the retailers and a book trailer on The Flag Keeper page.
