Kids 7: America: Share the Story \[The Cottage Meetings for Kids material is organized by stories and activities individual families can participate in all month long, \] 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: America: Share the Story This theme introduces the power of stories in promoting liberty and personal patriotism. As Americans, we need to know about our personal and collective stories; we also need to know what unites us as a people.
