How to celebrate Dec 18th

Start your day by baking a batch of cookies. Get creative with different flavors and shapes to celebrate the spirit of Bake Cookies Day. While the cookies are baking, take some time to appreciate the beauty of the Arabic language. Learn a few basic phrases or listen to Arabic music to immerse yourself in World Arabic Language Day.

As you enjoy your freshly baked cookies, take a moment to acknowledge the intricacies of snowflakes on Flake Appreciation Day. Grab a magnifying glass and head outside to observe the unique patterns up close. When the phone rings, channel your inner Buddy the Elf and answer with a cheerful “Buddy the Elf, what’s your favorite color?” in honor of Answer The Telephone Like Buddy The Elf Day.

For lunch, consider trying a new dish or visiting a local restaurant that serves roast suckling pig to celebrate National Roast Suckling Pig Day. If you’re a true crime enthusiast, spend some time listening to a podcast or watching a documentary for National Crime Junkie Day.

In the afternoon, take a moment to reflect on the experiences of migrants around the world. Explore stories of resilience and courage to commemorate International Migrants Day. To add a bit of whimsy to your day, wear a plunger on your head and snap a photo to capture the silliness of Wear a Plunger on Your Head Day.

As the day comes to a close, celebrate the bond of twins by reaching out to a friend or family member who shares a special connection with you for National Twin Day. Share memories, laughs, or even plan a virtual twin-themed activity to honor the unique relationship.

Embrace the fun and spontaneity of these weird national holidays by immersing yourself in baking, cultural appreciation, nature observation, culinary exploration, true crime stories, global awareness, playful antics, and cherished connections with loved ones. Enjoy the mix of activities and themes that make each holiday special in its own way!
