It's late, and I am too tired to type much or comment on the day's fun activities. But I must point you to Megan McArdle's website. She has posted a semester's worth of history for the holiday. When was the last time you read the Declaration of Independence? Have you ever read the other verses of the Star Spangled Banner? Wanna read some 18th, 19th, and 20th century poems about how great this nation of ours is? Go check it out, but don't expect to get through the whole thing in under an hour or so.
