Dear Henrietta,
My New Year’s Resolution was to have more fun this year, and it’s just not happening. Besides Easter, what other holidays are in April to make this the best spring EVER?
Signed,
Fun Fella
Dear Fun Fella,
I’ve got a whole list of playful holidays to brighten up every week of April 2023!
Do you love animals? There are plenty of opportunities to celebrate how much you love your furry friend! Celebrate National Zoo Lovers Day on April 8, National Pet Day on April 11, National Animal Cracker Day on April 18, National Pet Parent’s Day on April 24, or National Kids and Pets Day on April 28.
Are you a foodie? Love cooking and eating? Then this is your month! Celebrate National Grilled Cheese Sandwich Day on April 12, National Banana Day or National Pineapple Upside-Down Cake on April 20, National Tea Day on April 21, National Jellybean Day on April 22, or National Pretzel Day on April 26.
Want a day of random, crazy fun? How about going to work wearing your pajamas, laughing and dancing, high-fiving everyone, talking like you were William Shakespeare, and taking a wild guess at how it will go? That behavior is totally legit because it’s your turn to celebrate National Moment of Laughter Day on April 14, Take a Wild Guess Day on April 16, Wear Pajamas to Work Day on April 19, National High-Five Day on April 21, Talk Like Shakespeare Day on April 23, and International Dance Day on April 29.
I hope this helps and remember to HAVE FUN!
Love,
Henrietta
