🎇 Fireworks Fun!
Fireworks light up the sky with bright colors and loud bangs, symbolizing the excitement of freedom!

🎈 Parades and Parties
Many cities and towns have parades with marching bands, floats, and costumes from the Revolutionary War!

🎵 Songs of Freedom
Sing along to "The Star-Spangled Banner," "America the Beautiful," and "Yankee Doodle" during the celebrations!
