SIGNIFICANT DATE IN THE PHILIPPINE HISTORY

          As we come to celebrate the Philippine Independence Day, it’s important for parents to teach their kids about the heroism and sacrifice that our heroes did in order for us to have the freedom that we’re experiencing right now.

          Our national hero, Dr. Jose Rizal famously said that “Ang hindi lumigon sa pinanggalingan, ay hindi makararating sa pinaroroonan” and that’s very true. Knowing more about our past helps us understand our present better, and let us prepare for the future.

          It also serves as inspiration to us, so that they strive to someday make our own mark in our country’s history. Which is our heroes took it upon themselves to take back our country, and put an end to Spanish rule once and for all, even at the cost of their lives.
