Why don't you show them an episode of "Liberty's Kids" It's a great show (on FOX at 9am EST) for children about American independence. If you've never seen the show, there are a couple of episodes on YouTube.

EDIT: Just to add to the others' answers...#1. I don't know about the cabbage story, but the cherry tree story is a myth. #2. Originally, congress wanted to make Washington their new king. He refused, (said something like What good is it to fight to get out from under one king just to live under another?.) so they asked him to be president instead.

Answer 3

Hes A hero. Hes the 1st President of the U.S. and he was an army man who fought for the freedoms of the country

Answer 4

tell them how he fought in the Revioulary War to get the freedom for our country, I think that you could make them understand. Tell them that he was the first president of our great country. tell them the story about where he cut down the cherry tree but could not tell a lie.

Answer 5

Tell them about how he chopped down the cherry tree and said, "I will never tell a lie".

Tell them the story about how (I think that it was cabage) that was planted in the garden and when it grew, it was planted to say "george". When I was little, I heard this last one and planted radish seeds in the shape of my mom's first name for her.

Answer 6

Tell them the story about the silver dollar across the Potomac.

Answer 7

You can tell them that he led the American troops in the Revolutionary War, he was the first President, and there would be no United States without him.

Answer 8

I even have hardship with infants of this age partaking in protests. appears like they are going alongside by using fact the adults of their lives have confidence in this action, not quite something extra. i'm not by contrast, yet this feels like the little 3-foot young infants whose parents gown them in miniature Ku Klux Klan costumes. i don't think of they suspect in the Klan to any extent further than what the Repeal Coalition stands for specifically by using fact they don't look to be the right age. If a discern asks "Do you suspect in white supremacy?" the youngster will supply the respond he thinks the discern is calling for. Ditto something like "Do you suspect those anti-immigration rules are in simple terms?" in case you suspect in this, then pass. yet do not faux the infants "%* to be there. it quite is a smart PR ploy, dressing them up in costumes of what that they had % to be- makes for many suitable photograph ops, does not it? A 30-pound nurse and a 40-inch cop side with a pair of waist-severe cowboys and firemen. That'll make each and every of the information channels for particular. yet it quite is in simple terms PR. that doesn't quite handle the validity (or lack thereof) of the reason. particular, politics makes for unusual bedfellows. I in simple terms does not placed my infants in mattress with politicians. Take care!
