On Monday, May 25th, America will observe Memorial Day in honor of the soldiers who have and are currently fighting to defend our freedom. To help families celebrate this Memorial Day, fans young and old across the nation can celebrate and learn about heroes with Super WHY!
This Memorial Day, PBS Kids will be airing a two hour Super WHY! marathon called “Hurray for Heroes” in which two interactive episodes will debut. If your kids have never seen Super WHY!, I highly recommend it! Lily absolutely loves yelling out the answers and she is truly engaged while watching the episodes. I am amazed how much Lily is able to comprehend and the show really lays the ground work for reading. The superheroes make books come to life as they unveil what the power of reading can do!
From the press release:
“During the two-hour Super WHY! – Hurray for Heroes TV event, Super Why and his heroic storybook friends help a fairytale knight face his fears in the launch of George and the Dragon, travel “over the river and through the woods” in Little Red Riding Hood, jump into a book for an interactive island adventure in the debut of The Swiss Family Robinson, and show a stranded princess how to rescue herself in Rapunzel.”
That’s not all PBS Kids has in store for Super WHY fans! The TV event kicks off a summer of Super WHY! theme weeks, online games and free downloadable materials. Kids can also play the new Wonder Red’s Freeze Dance Rhyming Game!
GIVEAWAY

We had a bbq on Memorial Day. I don’t think that we give enough respect to those who have served us.
we had a barbecue it was pretty fun
We also took our son to the memorial in DC Memorial weekend.
One of the ways we teach our little one to be proud is by taking him to Memorial parades.
We always celebrate with a bbq with family.
We celebrated Memorial Day by visiting a friend and having dinner together. smilefest (at) yahoo (dot) com

This memorial day we stayed home because it was raining.. Boring but better than getting soaked… Everyday we remind the kids to be proud of USA and to remember the soliders that died and still fight today…
