The History of the bonfire night as narrated by my grandsons (7 years and 4 years old)
Guy Fawkes was a naughty man. King James did not like the Catholics and the Catholics did not like the King. One Cary Fawkes was fed up so he decided to blow up the castle with King James 1 inside. The soldiers caught him and put him in prison.
King James declared that Britain should have fireworks on the 5th of November every year.
Remember, remember the 5th of November with gun powder, treason and plot. This is an annual event when Britain always commemorate the capture of Guy Fawkes who with some others planned to blow up the house of British Parliament with intention of killing the king, King James the first and some others whom they thought was causing a lot of hardship to them. Guy was however captured ,tortured and executed. ( I am so impressed with the level of education in this country Britain. I was also baffled with the confidence, eloquence and smoothness these children exhibited when narrating this story of Guy to me. ) Happy Bonfire Britain.
Amazing and thanks for sharing
