Mrs.
Donn's Ancient Roots and Modern Holidays - many
links to sites for all holidays - U.S. and worldwide, with history, activities,
lesson plans, and clip art.
Great list of Holiday activities specifically geared toward primary grades.

around the world." A comprehensive "searchable" site suitable for grades K to
6. Many excellent links to activities celebrating cultural differences.
