Happy MLK day!

Check out this great website full of Martin Luther King, Jr. info. My kids actually sat the whole 17 minutes plus and watched and listened to his speech!

We had quite the discussion about the Civil Rights Movement, segregation and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. I found it amazing at the look of horror when they found out how our country was (and hopefully will never be again!). Goes to show you how much the young and pure can teach us.
We will be working on a craft to symbolize what this day means to the children and I hope to post it too- God willing :)

Happy Martin Luther King day!

So, how are you going to celebrate?

God bless,
Mary
