The Boston Tea Party Anniversary on December 16th remembers an event from long ago, in 1773, when people in Boston got upset about tax on tea. They didn't like being told what to do, so one night they dressed as Native Americans, sneaked onto ships, and threw lots of tea into the water. This was their way of saying "We're not happy!" and it was one of the steps that eventually led to America wanting to be its own country. Every year, people remember this event to learn about standing up for what they believe in.
How to celebrate Boston Tea Party Anniversary?
To celebrate the Boston Tea Party Anniversary, you can dress up in fun costumes like people from 1773. Have a pretend tea party with friends, but use hot chocolate or apple juice instead of tea! Create colorful signs and posters, and pretend to throw fake cardboard tea boxes into a kiddie pool for fun. Share stories and act out funny plays about how brave the colonists were. Maybe bake some cookies shaped like tea cups and enjoy them together. Don't forget to sing happy songs and laugh a lot, just like people celebrating something special from history would do!
