The 4th of July is one of the most beloved annual holidays and a true sign the summer season being in full fledge. But much like everything else that was impacted since this spring when the Covid-19 pandemic and subsequent quarantine began, the nation’s birthday won’t be the same. With many beaches, parks and firework celebrations cancelled across the country – it’s time to create fun memories at home- AGAIN!
For this year’s 4th of July weekend, we went to our Pinterest board, “4th of July with Kids,” where for the past few weeks, we curated patriotic meals from other moms and bloggers to celebrate the birthday of our country with familia.
So get in the ‘cocina’ (kitchen) with your older kids! Check out our super fun food ideas for 4th of July weekend or anytime this summer:
