How to celebrate Dec 7th

Start your day by embracing creativity with a fun DIY slime-making session. Combine common household ingredients like glue, borax, and food coloring to whip up your own batch of slime. Get messy, get silly, and enjoy the process of creating something uniquely squishy.

After your slime session, indulge your sweet tooth with some homemade cotton candy. You don’t need fancy equipment for this; simply heat sugar in a pan until it caramelizes, then use a fork to spin the strands into fluffy cotton candy clouds. It may not be as perfect as the carnival version, but the homemade charm adds to the fun.

Next, take to the skies (figuratively) to celebrate International Civil Aviation Day. Research a new destination, learn about different aircraft, or try your hand at making paper airplanes. Let your imagination soar as you explore the wonders of aviation.

Continue the day with a bit of skill and finesse on World Trick Shot Day. Grab a ball, head outside, and start practicing your best trick shots. Whether it’s basketball, soccer, or even a ping pong ball into a cup, challenge yourself to pull off some impressive shots.

Pause to remember history on National Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day. Take a moment of silence to honor those who lost their lives and reflect on the impact of that fateful day. Watch a documentary, read a book, or visit a local memorial to pay your respects.

Celebrate the state of Illinois on National Illinois Day by learning about its history, culture, and landmarks. Whip up a Chicago-style deep dish pizza, watch a Cubs game, or enjoy some blues music to immerse yourself in all things Illinois.

Reconnect with loved ones on National Letter Writing Day by sitting down to write heartfelt letters to family and friends. Share your thoughts, feelings, and memories in a handwritten note that will surely bring smiles to their faces.

End your day surrounded by the warm glow of candles on Day of the Little Candles. Light up your space with an array of candles, enjoy their flickering light, and bask in the cozy ambiance they create. Take a moment to relax, unwind, and appreciate the simple beauty of a candlelit evening.
