Tell a Fairy Tale Day, Another Weird or Bizarre Holiday,

So what is “Tell a Fairy Tale Day”?

“Tell a Fairy Tale Day” will always be found on February 26th.

Today is a great opportunity to read your kids.  That is if the kids are around.  If they aren't around, it’s perfectly okay to read a fair tale alone.  We all know that everybody loves a good fairy tale, including a macho, macho man.

To qualify as a fairy tale, a story does not have to begin with "Once upon a time.....".  But, they normally do.  It is a requirement that the story has a happy ending.  You know the one that says “and they lived happily ever after”.  There's no better ending.

On Fairy Tale Day, I would recommend that you get a tall mug of hot chocolate (with marshmallows), cozy up under a blanket with the kids and read a fairy tale book.  Libraries and schools will often mark this day with special fairy tale readings and story hours.

It's Tell a Fairy Tale Day.  This is a day that Fairy Tales are made of (and for).
