Kids 6: The Power of Patriotism \[The Cottage Meetings for Kids material is organized by stories and activities individual families can participate in all month long, \] followed by an Activity Day Outline designed for a co-op style setting where multiple families can share what they’ve learned and enjoy a fun day of activities, stories and games highlighting the monthly theme. This Month’s Theme: The Power of Patriotism This theme introduces the third Pillar of Liberty, Patriotism. It’s manifested through devotion to a cause higher than oneself—not for what the Patriot knows in their mind, but for what they understand in their heart. This leads to lasting dedication to living and promoting the principles of liberty.
