Once a person has completed all the necessary steps to becoming a United States citizen they are bound to be proud of this achievement and deserve a celebration. Finding a gift to commemorate such an occasion can be a simple endeavor if you just remember why you yourself are proud to be an American. Patriotic gifts are fun to purchase or make and mean so much to that person fulfilling the dream of becoming a U.S. citizen. - Proudly displaying an American flag is a freedom a new U.S. citizen will embrace. Give them a flag with a card describing what the flag means. The flag has 13 stripes that stand for the original 13 colonies and 50 stars that symbolize the 50 states. The ability to display the flag is one of the many freedoms American citizens enjoy. Include a copy of the Pledge of Allegiance to celebrate the importance of the flag.
- The United States is based on a set of laws put forth by the founding fathers in the form of the Constitution. When an individual decides to become a U.S. citizen these laws become a sacred part of their lives. They now have all the freedoms of any American and a gift of these bylaws that formed the country is an appropriate present to give someone who just received U.S. citizenship. Consider pocket-sized copies or a signed, paper copy in a nice frame.
- Give a gift basket filled with all things American. Some items to place in the basket include apple pie filling and box of unmade crust and a gift certificate to a local American restaurant. Pay tribute to America's favorite pastime and include a bag of peanuts in the shell with a couple of baseball tickets for their local major or minor league team. Include a copy of USA Today magazine with a year's subscription to complete this patriotic gift for U.S. citizenship.
