It was yesterday. I don't take the joy out of the holiday. Everyone wears green or they get pinched. It's a fun tradition, and my moms maiden name was Carter, we have the roots to go along with it.
So how to teach a child the true roots without ruining the holiday? It took some reasearch but I did find something that explains exactly what happened, but doesn't ruin the holiday.

It is kid related and it helps to explain what really happened.
I think it was pretty awesome and accurate without being accusing. Enjoy this, it was the best neutral truthful piece I found on it.
