How to celebrate Aug 7th

We wake up on a day where public speakers, engineers, and packaging enthusiasts are all being celebrated. Let’s start by honing our public speaking skills. Find a quiet spot, practice a speech, record it for feedback. Maybe even share it on social media to inspire others.

Next, let’s tap into our engineering side. Build something simple but creative using household items – a paper tower, a popsicle stick bridge. The key is to have fun and challenge yourself.

Now, onto preposterous packaging. Look around your house for the most bizarre packaging you can find. Share it online with the hashtag #PackagingFail and join the conversation.

As we move on to celebrating lighthouses, research famous lighthouses and their history. If possible, visit a local lighthouse or build a miniature version using materials at home.

To appreciate aged care employees, write thank you notes to caregivers in your community. Small gestures can go a long way in brightening someone’s day.

Last but not least, to honor Purple Heart recipients, take a moment of silence to reflect on their sacrifice. Consider donating to organizations that support veterans.

By embracing the spirit of these diverse holidays, we can learn, create, appreciate, and give back in our own small ways. Cheers to a day filled with growth, creativity, gratitude, and remembrance. Let’s make the most of this unique combination of celebrations!
