How to celebrate Dec 17th

Start your day by indulging in some fluffy pancakes smothered in delicious maple syrup. Embrace the sweetness of National Maple Syrup Day with a hearty breakfast that will kickstart your day on a high note.

Next, channel your inner innovator and celebrate Wright Brothers Day by taking flight in a different way. Visit a local park and spend some time flying kites with friends or family. Feel the thrill of watching your kite soar high in the sky, just like the Wright brothers did with their pioneering aviation feats.

As you appreciate the devices that make your life easier on National Device Appreciation Day, why not gather your loved ones for a fun DIY project? Upcycle old electronic devices into creative decorations or useful organizers. Get hands-on and rediscover the joy of crafting while giving new life to outdated gadgets.

Wrap up your day by embracing the spirit of giving on National Re-Gifting Day. Take a look through your belongings and find items that are still in good condition but no longer serve you. Create thoughtful gift packages and donate them to local shelters or community centers. Spread joy and generosity while decluttering your space.

These weird national holidays may seem unrelated, but when combined, they offer a unique opportunity to savor the simple pleasures of life. So go ahead, celebrate each moment and make the most of this delightfully unexpected medley of festivities.
