Freedom Day

25

Apr

Freedom Day on April 25 is a special holiday in Portugal. It celebrates the day in 1974 when the people and the military worked together to end a long period of strict and unfair government. This day is remembered for the "Carnation Revolution," where soldiers put flowers in their guns to show that they wanted peace, not fighting. People were finally able to speak freely, vote, and make choices about their country. It's a joyful day with parades, music, and activities that remind everyone of the importance of being free and living in a fair and happy place.

How to celebrate Freedom Day?

Start by hanging a colorful flag outside your house. Invite your friends and family over for a fun day together. You can have a picnic in your backyard or a nearby park. Play games like tag or hide and seek. You can also enjoy watching a parade if there's one nearby. Don't forget to play music and dance around. Share stories about what freedom means to you and listen to others. Create freedom-themed arts and crafts, like drawing or painting. End the day by watching fireworks if possible. Remember to take lots of pictures to remember the fun day!
