Yes I can remember that.
And I can remember my children, in elementary school, drawing pictures of both Lincoln and Washington, in February, and pictures drawn by children being displayed in their school.
It’s hard to believe now , but these events happened in a public school in California.

Not hard for me! We did this in our (California) elementary school as well.
February was such a special month! Still winter, but with two Presidents’ birthdays, plus Valentine’s day!
We also made cherry blossom trees using black construction paper for the trunks and branches and pink tissue paper for the blossoms.
Actually 4 Presidents had February birthdays. William Henry Harrison’s birthday was Feb. 9 and Ronald Reagan’s birthday was Feb. 6.
