Most of the time on the 4th of July I go somewere my whole famly can see fireworks. We stay there for the whole time. The fireworks are amazing!! Once I saw a green rectangle with a red diamond in the middle. Some look like they're coming right at you. -Ava, age 7 |

I ride on a little roller-coaster and play on a waterslide. I sit on the slide. Sometimes I swim. -Vanche, age 4 |

Usually, on the 4th of July, my family goes up to Williamsburg to visit my nanna. After going to Busch Gardens and historical Colonial Williamsburg, we drive over to a usually deserted golf course to watch the fireworks. We all dwell on the thought of this country's grand freedom. -Ricka, age 12 |

One time, on July 4th my whole family went to visit the Statue of Liberty. TOTALLY COOL!
It is on an island in the Hudson River in New York. We had to take a ferry to get there. Then we took the boat to Ellis Island. I also love the fireworks! -Christina, age 10 |
