How To Use The Veteran Day Cards:
Before your children create their cards, you can read books about Veterans Day like What Is Veteran’s Day by Elaine Landau so they understand the reason we celebrate the holiday.
Your kids can write a note to a member of the military thanking them for their service. It can be a personal note to a friend or family member in the armed forces or a general note of thanks to any service member.
After writing their note, your kids can color the front of the card and send it in the mail. For more tips and the address where to send letters to troops, visit Support our Troops.
