It's Presidents Day and most kids are off from school. If you're looking for a way to keep your children occupied, you could quiz them on their knowledge of presidential trivia ... if your kids are into that sort of thing.
But we're guessing they'd prefer to do something different and fun, and run around as much much as possible.
