Head of the Class: 7 Presidential Fun Facts for Kids (and Adults!)

My 5-year-old-son and I have recently been spending a lot of time talking about U.S. presidents.

He was so interested in the presidency that I got him a place mat with pictures of all the presidents on it, and he's been asking lots of questions about what each of them did in office.
