It's not a July 4 celebration without flying Old Glory. Amazon shoppers love this one because it can stand up to the elements.

"This is our second purchase of this beautiful flag," a rave reviewer shared. "The first time we purchased, our neighbor joked with us that the brilliance of our flag made his look old, dull and dingy and he went right out and purchased a better one for himself."

This summer is turning out to be a hot one! If you have grandkids coming to visit for your patriotic celebration, these water balloons will keep them busy (and cool) for hours.

"All I have to say is, WOW," wrote an impressed shopper. "Where were these when I was a kid?! They couldn’t have made it any easier to blow up multiple balloons at once and my favorite part? You don’t even have to tie them! You just pull them down and they’re tied already! My husband and I had a blast having the ultimate water balloon fight and my toddler enjoyed playing with them as well! I’ll never buy regular water balloons again!"

LED American Flag Cornhole Set

A Fourth of July celebration practically begs for a game of bags! Perfect for all-day family fun, you can play well into the night with the addition of LED lights.

"We wanted a fun, outdoor family game and had been pondering cornhole for a while," noted a satisfied customer. "The problem was really the storage component when perusing the wooden units. Was so glad to find this on Amazon and ever more impressed with the product itself. It is well made, looks very nice, comes with all the game rules laminated, and so easy to store. The handles and foldability make it easy to take to events, parties, etc. and of course, carry. So glad we bought it and know we will get years of great use!"

"This was definitely a fun addition to our July 4th shenanigans," a happy shopper shared. "It was great hearing the little kids on the lake saying they see giant rubber ducks. Sturdy material! Easy to assemble with an air compressor."

Patriotic Garden Gnome

Every yard needs a gnome, but this little guy ups his cuteness factor by waving the American flag.
