For Kids
The ancient Greeks loved
heroes. The word "hero" comes from the Greeks. In the United
States, we honor several of our heroes in February. One day in February
was originally put aside to honor two of our presidents with birthdays in
February - George Washington and Abraham Lincoln.
This holiday has grown to
include all our presidents. We call this day Presidents' Day.
