3.  Make any craft that celebrates America. I have found so many fun crafts on Pinterest. 

Food fun:

Many Americans  have picnics and barbeques for the 4th of July

1. Have a picnic or barbeque even if its indoors

Strange question, it was our big Canada Day here yesterday - we celebrate July 1st! Would it be alright for me to do the same activities for this badge but for my country?
