SEPTEMBER 27 – Ancestor appreciation day
On Ancestor Appreciation Day, sharing the family tree, and telling stories about different members is a wonderful way to introduce children to the history and story of their family, and how all the people fit together.
Help the kids build a simple family tree. There are lots of family tree software packages available in stores and on the internet. (If you do decide to use an internet based program, make sure it is a secure website before you enter personal information - look for https:// instead of http:// and somewhere in the browser frame, a yellow padlock.)
Or, create a small book with your kids, with each branch on a separate page. Include for each family member:
- Date of birth
- City, state and country where they were born
- Where they grew up
- Where they live now
- Pictures
- Interesting stories, interests factoids
- Favorite foods and recipes.
