What is Juneteenth Day or Freedom Day?
Juneteenth, also called Freedom Day or Emancipation Day, is celebrated on June 19th every year. It marks the day in 1865 when enslaved African Americans in Galveston, Texas, finally learned that they were free more than two years after the Emancipation Proclamation was signed.

From a Mom’s Heart: Our Juneteenth Coloring Pages Experience
As a mom, I always look for creative ways to help my kids learn while having fun. When I shared these Juneteenth coloring pages with them, it turned into one of the most heartwarming afternoons we’ve had together. We sat around the table with crayons and colored pencils, and I told them the story of Juneteenth. How it celebrates freedom, courage and unity. My youngest looked up and said, “So this is the day everyone got to be free?” That moment melted my heart.
As they colored flags, hearts and freedom quotes, I could see pride and joy shining on their faces. One of them proudly taped their finished page on the fridge and said, “This means we can all be happy together!” It was such a simple activity, yet it brought so much meaning, love and laughter into our home. These pages didn’t just entertain my kids . They helped us celebrate freedom in the most beautiful, creative way.
