Stars and Stripes

Stars and Stripes

Our flag has a story. The thirteen colonies that formed our country all had different flags.

We needed one flag for all of the United States. We made a flag that had thirteen bright stars and thirteen bold stripes.

We made our new flag in red, white, and blue. We called our flag the Stars and Stripes.

Our country grew so we added two new stars and two new stripes. A famous song was written about this flag.

Our country grew more and more. We needed to change our flag again.
