Celebrate Abe!

Happy Birthday Abe

February 12 is Abe Lincoln's Birthday

A few fun facts about Abraham Lincoln...
  • 16th president of the United States
  • Born in Kentucky
  • Died in Washington DC
  • His head is on the Penny 
  • 4 children with his wife Mary Todd
  • Author of the famous Gettysburg Address (Four score and seven years ago...)
To celebrate this great man, use pennies to count all of those 10x spots your teacher assigns. Maybe if you're feeling extra generous, your child can keep the 10 pennies that he/she has been using to count repetitions today as a little party gift from the little celebration you just had to honor this great man!
