December holidays
Antarctica Day
On December 1st, Antarctica Day recognizes the Antarctic Treaty, which protects the continent from territorial claims, military activities, and more. Spend today learning about this amazing place and the creatures that live there.
Mitten Tree Day
It’s Mitten Tree Day on December 6th. This holiday is inspired by the book, The Mitten Tree by Candace Christianson. In it, a woman whose kids are grown secretly knits mittens for kids at a nearby bus stop who don’t have any. It’s a cute story about generosity and this is the perfect time of year to read it, then donate mittens to a local shelter.
National Pastry Day
December 9th is National Pastry Day. Pastries can be sweet or savory. Celebrate by baking or just stop by your favorite bakery for a croissant, a slice of pie, or an eclair.
National Day of the Horse
If you or your child love horses, December 13th is the day to celebrate. National Day of the Horse is a day to celebrate and learn about these beautiful and helpful animals.
Crossword Puzzle Day
Crossword Puzzle Day is each year on December 21st. Do you solve a daily puzzle? Today’s the perfect day to start. The New York Times has a mini puzzle online that’s relatively easy – and many other online newspapers do too.
