Your guide to celebrating May 9
Get your day off to a refreshing start by attending a local fair trade market. Grab a delicious Moscato to enjoy while exploring handmade crafts – a great way to support fair trade while sipping and shopping. Next, head to a park to watch migratory birds or take a jog around a windmill. Don’t forget to practice your archery skills or join a belly dance class for some fun exercise. Take a train ride to a nearby town to explore new surroundings. Afterward, indulge in a butterscotch brownie or host a sleepover with friends. Hang up alphabet magnets or buttons as decorations, and discuss the importance of home front heroes. Remember lost socks with a moment of silence and cherish the memory of birth mothers. Release stress with a collage project and unwind with a CDLS awareness documentary. Before bed, tear those pesky mattress tags off for added excitement. End the day in Guernsey Liberation style with a toast to a day well spent – a perfect medley of celebration and awareness!
