How to celebrate Dec 7th

Start your day by cultivating your inner child with some homemade slime. Get your hands dirty mixing together glue, water, and some liquid starch or borax until you achieve that perfect slimy consistency. Let the gooey fun begin!

After getting your hands sticky, indulge your sweet tooth with some cotton candy. No need for a fancy machine; just pick up some fluffy cotton candy from a local store or fair. Enjoy the fluffy sugary goodness as it melts in your mouth.

Next, take to the skies (figuratively) by celebrating International Civil Aviation Day. Watch airplane documentaries, visit an aviation museum, or simply gaze up at the sky and appreciate the wonder of human flight.

For a touch of local pride, honor National Illinois Day by exploring the state’s history, cuisine, or landmarks. Cook up some classic Chicago-style deep-dish pizza or take a virtual tour of The Bean in Millennium Park.

Pause for a moment of nostalgia on National Letter Writing Day by penning a heartfelt note to a friend or family member. Express your gratitude, share a funny memory, or simply say hello the old-fashioned way.

Lastly, pay tribute to the past on National Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day. Take a moment of silence, read up on WWII history, or watch a documentary to honor those who served and sacrificed.

By embracing slime, cotton candy, aviation, Illinois, letter writing, and remembrance in a single day, you’ll create a unique and memorable experience to cherish. Let your creativity flow and enjoy the simple pleasures life has to offer!
