Presidents Day is February 20th!  Here are some facts for the kiddos!

  • A minimum of 300 billion portraits of Abraham Lincoln have been created – that’s how many pennies have been made since 1787.
  • Sixth President John Quincy Adams had a pet alligator that lived in a bathtub at the White House.
  • The first President born a U.S. citizen was Martin Van Buren. His birthday was December 5, 1782, making him the first president born after the Declaration of Independence was signed.
  • John Adams and Thomas Jefferson were the only presidents to sign the Declaration of Independence, and they both died on its 50th anniversary, July 4, 1826.
  • Nine presidents never attended college, including Washington and Lincoln. However, Lincoln was an avid reader and self-educated.
  • At 6′ 4″, Abraham Lincoln was the tallest U.S. President. The shortest, James Madison, was 5′ 4″ tall.
  • When he became President, George Washington had only one tooth. He wore dentures made of human or animal teeth, ivory and lead, but never wood.
  • George Washington is the only president that never lived in Washington, D.C. during his presidency.
  • Andrew Jackson was the first president to have been born in a log cabin, and the first to ride a railroad train.

    Have you seen the new movie coming out this Summer called “Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter”? It’s by Tim Burton. I am not sure I get it. LOL
