i remember as a small kid a WWII vet came into our class, i think all the 2nd graders were together. he talked about his experiences and what the flag and patriotism meant to him.
that combined with the things my grandfather taught me made me appreciate the pledge.
sometimes it is good to create a habit even before the "why" of something is clear.
my 3 year old gets mad about brushing his teeth everyday and always asks why - someday he'll understand why, but for now, just doing it is enough.
