The American flag is a very special symbol of the United States. It has three beautiful colors: red, white, and blue. There are 13 long stripes that go across the flag. Some are red and some are white. These stripes help us remember the very first 13 states. Red stands for being brave and strong!
If you look in the top corner, you will see a blue box with many white stars. There are 50 stars in total! Each star stands for one of the states in our big country. People often call our flag “Old Glory.” We see the American flag flying high at schools and parks. It reminds everyone to be kind and work together!
