Have fun while keeping those pearly whites nice and shiny. Let your child pick out a couple of great tooth-brushes and let them brush along with you. Until they’ve mastered brushing, you’ll need to finish up the job for them. Let them practice on your teeth – and on their dolls and teddy bear’s teeth.

After exploring the island, bring out some delicious Coconut water and pineapple as a desert island treat to enjoy.

National Freedom Day commemorates the signing of the law abolishing slavery that became the 13th admendment to the constitution of the United States. Good resources for talking to your children about this painful chapter in our history can be found at EHow - Teach Children about Slavery
