“I have a dream that my four little children will
one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the colour of their
skin but by the content of their character.”
Martin Luther King Day will next be celebrated on 16th January 2012 in the US. Dr Martin Luther King Jr. was a leader of the civil
rights movement in 1960s America, which meant that he hoped that black
people and white people would begin to live together peacefully, with equal
rights. He was assassinated in 1968. We've got a variety of MLK Day activities to suit all ages below...
Wouldn't it be terrible? Wouldn't it be sad?
If just one single colour was the colour that we had?
If everything was purple? Or red? Or blue? Or green?
If yellow, pink, or orange was all that could be seen?
Can you just imagine how dull the world would be
If just one single colour was all that we could see?

"If I had my life to live over I would have sat on the lawn with my children and not worried about grass stains." Erma Bombeck
"Whoever you are, there is some younger person who thinks you
are perfect. There is some work that will never be done if you
don't do it. There is someone who would miss you if you were
gone. There is a place that you alone can fill." Jacob M. Braude
