National days on Wed Jul 10th, 2024

Let’s start the day off by celebrating National Kitten Day! Head to the nearest animal shelter or rescue center and spend some time playing with the adorable furballs. Consider making a donation or volunteering to help out with the kittens in need. After all that cuteness overload, it’s time to bring awareness to chronic diseases. Take a moment to educate yourself about different chronic conditions and how you can support those affected by them. Share information on social media to spread awareness.

As you continue your day, be mindful of our fuzzy friends on Don’t Step On A Bee Day. Take a nature walk and appreciate the vital role bees play in our ecosystem. Consider planting some flowers or herbs in your garden to attract bees and support pollination. Following your outdoor adventure, have a Teddy Bear Picnic with your loved ones. Gather some snacks and blankets, head to a local park, and enjoy a cozy picnic with your favorite stuffed animals.

After all that fun, it’s time to cool off on National Piña Colada Day! Whip up this tropical drink at home with some pineapple juice, coconut cream, and rum (or skip the alcohol for a kid-friendly version). Sip on your refreshing beverage and transport yourself to a sunny beach with each sip. Lastly, wrap up the day by picking blueberries at a nearby farm or farmers market. Enjoy the fresh, sweet berries on their own, or use them in pancakes, smoothies, or desserts.

By incorporating the themes of these weird national holidays into your day, you can have a fun, meaningful, and budget-friendly celebration filled with kittens, awareness, nature, cuddly toys, tropical drinks, and delicious berries. Cheers to a wonderfully whimsical day!
