How to celebrate Martin Luther King, Jr this weekend with your littles:
1. Experience. Attend a family-friendly MLK celebration! See my event's page for a full listing of local marches, readings and celebrations. There are least four within a 35 minute drive.
2. Read. Check out your local library’s selection of MLK books. Our local library had a lovely display for something for all ages. These are a good place to start:
My Little Golden Book About Martin Luther King Jr by Bonnie Bader
Who Was Martin Luther King, Jr.? by Bonnie Bader
Happy Birthday, Martin Luther King Jr. by Jean Marzollo
3. Crafts: I like tying books with a craft to make it more memorable, if not the same day then soon after. Here are a few of my favorite crafts and be sure to have skin tone crayons, in life. (Hover over pictures for links).
