I imagine there was quite a lot of red,white and blue colour worn by those children in their costumes.

The little girl second left MAY be Pat Cooksey who became my sister-in-law. Edna Hart was her friend and was a bridesmaid at Pat's wedding, as well as making the dresses, (although I'm not certain if it was Edna or her Mother who made the dresses....I was only 9 years old and the youngest bridesmaid). Obviously I didn't know Pat when this pic was taken but I studied it when I realised it was Spring View and the little girl I mentioned is the image of my niece Allison, (Pat's daughter), when she was small.

PS.....on further study, I think Pat is standing just behind the queen, wearing a tall pointed hat, almost in the centre of the photo. She looks to be around the same age as Edna Hart, whereas the little girl I picked out previously is perhaps too young to be Pat. Hope someone can confirm.
