Benjamin Franklin's birthday




Some of our favorite books to enjoy today:














If you aren't crafty (and I can empathize), here's a template to make your own three cornered hat so you can look just like Benjamin Franklin! Although, Benjamin did remind me that Franklin wore a coonskin cap. And here or here you can find even more activities to share with your family.

Yes, your dear boy is correct. Ben Franklin did love his Coonskin Cap, among many other things. Edward and I watched the John Adams Mini-Series on HBO last year....it was FANTASTIC. It gave me a whole new appreciation for Ben Franklin. I just love that period of history!
