Veterans Day is November 11. This day honors the men and women who have served and are currently serving in our nation’s armed forces. Since this day comes between Halloween and Thanksgiving, we often miss it and miss opportunities to help preschoolers think about people who serve our country. The ideas below can help you talk with your children about these important people.
