As the day winds down, pay tribute to Robinson Crusoe Day by escaping into a good book or movie about survival. For dinner, try incorporating some serpent-shaped foods to celebrate National Serpent Day in a playful way. Then, educate yourself about conservatorship and guardianship abuse on its awareness day.
Cap off your day with some face and body art to mark International Face and Body Art Day. Get creative with makeup or face paints, or simply appreciate the artistry of others online. Finally, take a moment to reflect on the importance of freedom on National Freedom Day.
