Happy Presidents' Day! It's a holiday celebrated on the third Monday of February to honor all presidents of the United States, and a federal holiday specifically honoring George Washington, who led the Continental Army to victory in the American Revolutionary War, presided at the Constitutional Convention of 1787, and was the first president of the United States. Did you know? Presidents' Day never falls on the actual birthday of any American president. George Washington, William Henry Harrison, Abraham Lincoln, and Ronald Reagan were all born in February, but their birthdays all come either too early or late.
