Rosa Parks Day is a special day on December 1st to remember a brave woman named Rosa Parks. A long time ago, in 1955, she did something very important. She refused to give up her seat on a bus to a white person when there were unfair laws. This made many people think about fairness and equal rights for everyone, no matter their skin color. Her actions helped change those unfair laws. Now, we celebrate her courage and remember her as a hero who stood up for what was right, inspiring others to do the same.
How to celebrate Rosa Parks Day?
Start the day by reading a story or watching a video about Rosa Parks. Talk with your family about why she is important and why we remember her. Make a thank-you card for her bravery and put it somewhere special. Draw pictures of Rosa Parks and discuss what courage means. You can also create a little play about her life with your friends or family. Celebrate with cupcakes or snacks and say why you think she is a hero. End the day by thinking about how you can be brave and kind in your own life, just like Rosa Parks.
