Flag Day on April 27 is a special day in South Africa. It's like a birthday party for their national flag, which is a colorful symbol representing the country's freedom and unity. On this day, people celebrate by showing or waving their flags proudly. The flag's design includes six different colors: black, green, yellow, white, red, and blue. Each color has its own special meaning, like peace, rich land, and the people who live there. This day helps everyone remember the importance of coming together as one big family, even if they are different from each other.
