Event Description

Happy birthday, USA! Join the Children's Museum of Houston as we throw a party for the nation at our Stars and Stripes Celebration! We will have various patriotic activities as well as a special rocket salute for our wonderful country.

All-day activities include:
  • Independence Day Fireworks: The 4th of July is a perfect day to celebrate with fireworks. Stop by and make pretend fireworks that you can play with any day!
  • Stars and Stripes Patriotic Artwork:  Design your very own red, white and blue creation to take home!
  • Patriotic Star Decorations: Each of the 50 stars on the flag represents each state that belongs to the United States. Make a star-studded decoration to celebrate the nation.
  • Eagle Decoration: Did you know that the bald eagle is the only eagle unique to North America? Celebrate our national bird by decorating a bald eagle of your own!
Special performances:
21-Balloon Rocket Salute: Our national salute is a 21-gun salute. We will tell our country “Happy Birthday” with a not-so-traditional 21 balloon rocket salute instead!
