250 Candles for America
On the morning of July 4th, two children embarked on a truly special mission. Emma and Marcus, who are best friends, decided to gather candles from every family on their street for America’s birthday cake. What starts as a straightforward task quickly transforms into an unforgettable adventure filled with traditions, stories, and dreams that illuminate America.
As they visit neighbors from diverse backgrounds, Emma and Marcus uncover beautiful candles inspired by family heritage, treasured customs, and the values that unite us all. From lanterns and folk art to music, food, celebrations, and family memories, each candle narrates a tale—and every tale brings light to America’s 250th birthday festivities.
This is a story for all ages, and be sure to notice the Family Activity above, where you can download and create your own cultural candle that holds special meaning for your family.
