Patriotic Ways to Celebrate Fourth of July with Your Family
Pow. Boom. Sploosh. It’s time for the fireworks to fly! That’s right, the Fourth of July is just around the corner. From red, white, and blue clothing to educational outings, there are plenty of ways for you and your family to celebrate Independence Day. Here are some activities to inspire your festivities.
Dress the Part
Wearing red, white, and blue is one of the simplest ways to show your patriotism and celebrate this national holiday. Although you can probably find patriotic gear anywhere, Old Navy and Target's Fourth of July collections are excellent sources for matching outfits for the whole family. 05 JULY 2022
If you're feeling crafty, it might also be fun to decorate your own T-shirts, hats, shoes, dresses, skirts, shorts, and face masks! Get creative with red, white, and blue tie-dye or break out the fabric paints, markers, iron-on badges, glitter, pins, and appliques. And don't forget to listen to your favorite music while you create your own Fourth of July looks.
Have a Patriotic Picnic
Enjoy a meal on the grass beneath the setting summer sun. A patriotic picnic can be a stand-alone event or a peaceful break between the rest of the day's festivities. Preparing the picnic is a family activity in and of itself. This red, white, and blue potato salad would be perfect alongside this decadent lobster macaroni salad. And, what kids wouldn't love these homemade pretzels? They can also have fun adding patriotic sprinkles to these show-stopping red, white, and blue truffles and these white chocolate-dipped strawberries. When you get to the beach, the park, or the front lawn, lay your creations out on a giant star-spangled banner blanket or tablecloth and enjoy. (And be sure to keep your food fresh and well-chilled with ice and cooler packs.)
Paint Your Lawn
Get in touch with your creative side and up your family's lawn game this July Fourth! Using grass-friendly spray paint, the whole family can get artsy by doing some patriotic painting together. Use red, white, and blue paints to decorate your front lawns with stars and stripes or positive words of celebration. Depending on your levels of artistry, consider using stencils to outline your designs. Remember to let the paint dry before walking across the lawn.
Create a Photo Booth
Friends and family are bound to take lots of photos when they gather to celebrate. Between the inevitable color coordination of red, white, and blue and the electric energy of everyone anticipating the fireworks, Independence Day is the perfect time for some photo booth fun. To create your own photo station, start with a stars and stripes backdrop and some balloons. Then, gather some props like flags, hats, sunglasses, and signs for guests to pose with. Many ring-lights also double as smartphone stands, making it easy for anyone to snap a hands-free photo with flattering lighting. Article from Verywell Family by Shannon Day.

S’mores Cookies Ingredients: • 1 ½ cups plus 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour • 1 cup graham cracker crumbs • 1 teaspoon baking soda • 1 teaspoon salt • Pinch of cinnamon • 2 sticks unsalted butter, at room temperature • ¾ cup granulated sugar • ¾ cup light brown sugar • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract • 2 large eggs • 1 cup miniature chocolate chips • 1 ½ cups mini marshmallows • 2 Hershey bars, chopped
Directions: 1. Preheat oven to 375°F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper. 2. In a medium bowl combine the flour, graham cracker crumbs, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. 3. In a large bowl, use an electric mixer on medium-high speed to beat the butter, sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla extract until creamy, about 2 to 3 minutes. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Slowly beat in the flour mixture until smooth. Stir in the chocolate chips.
4. Use a medium cookie scoop to drop 1 1/2 tablespoon-sized balls onto the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 8 minutes and remove from the oven. Push 3 to 4 marshmallows and a few pieces of Hershey bar into each cookie. Return to the oven and bake an additional 3-4 minutes until fully cooked. Cool cookies on a wire rack. Serve and enjoy! Thank you to Handle the Heat for the recipe. S'more summer fun, please!
