WHEN DID THE U.S. BEGIN ADOPTING STATE SYMBOLS?

A "National Garland of Flowers" created for the 1893 World's Fair in Chicago

adopting official state flowers. This began a trend that led to the adoption of
official state birds, state trees, and all the unique state symbols recognized
today.


HOW IS A STATE SYMBOL CREATED?

A social studies teacher describes how she and her 7th-grade students championed
the cowboy boot as a state symbol on the Texas state footwear page; read how
students in Alaska initiated adoption of the official state dog; how a high
school student campaigned for state dinosaur of Arkansas; how 3rd-graders in
Alabama worked to have the endangered Red Hills salamander recognized as state
amphibian; how 4th-graders pushed for a state dog in Delaware, how an
11-year-old initiated steps to adopt a state reptile for Virginia ...
