How to celebrate Jul 21st
How about starting your day with a delicious homemade Lamington for breakfast? Dive into the sweet treat before heading out to pick up some junk food snacks to enjoy later in the day. Grab your craft supplies and spend some time creating something special to donate to your local shelter.
Next, why not take a moment to reach out to someone you may have had a disagreement with and use National Get Out of the Dog House Day as an opportunity to mend fences? Give them a call or send a heartfelt message to show that you care.
Since it’s Legal Drinking Age Day, consider whipping up some fun mocktails to enjoy with friends or family. Mix up some refreshing drinks and toast to good times ahead. In the spirit of Global Hug Your Kids Day, shower the little ones with love and affection. Plan a fun activity together or simply spend quality time bonding.
For lunch, get creative and have some fun by preparing a meal fit for a monkey! Make a playful dish like a banana sandwich or a fruity salad. After lunch, why not invite a friend over for a craft session and celebrate Invite an Alien to Live with You Day by crafting some out-of-this-world decorations together?
As the day winds down, don’t forget to give your kids another hug and maybe even consider reaching out to a local charity to see how you can help out on National Craft for Your Local Shelters Day. Round off the evening by raising a toast to Belgium National Day with a Belgian-inspired treat or drink.
