Fun Days in December! Ho, Ho, Ho!

FUN DAYS IN DECEMBER! HO, HO, HO!



Today, December 1, is World AID's Day.  A day when individuals and organizations from around the world come together and bring attention to the global AIDS epidemic. 


December, the last month of the year, is a month of many fun occasions.  The more obvious is Christmas (25th) and New Year's Eve (31st).  As you shop this month, whether on the Internet or in the stores, be aware of thieves.  This month is Identity Theft Prevention and Awareness Month.  As we round out the year and ponder on the New Year to come, you can begin your business plans.  It's not too early to start thinking about what camp to send the children to.  December is National Write a Business Plan Month and Choose a Summer Camp Month!  December is also Bingo's Birthday month for those of you who love B-I-N-G-O the way I do! 


There are a number of Weekly Observances this month that I will celebrate.  First,  Tolerance Week (1-7), I shall strive to have lots of tolerance during the shopping season!  National Handwashing Awareness Week (7-10) - I have two boys, need I say more about handwashing?!  It's About Time week (25-31), time to make those resolutions.  There is also Chanukah/Hanukkah (22-29) and Kwanza (26 -1/1).


Here are more special days in December:

2        Special Education Day    

3     Special Kids Day


5        Bathtub Party Day (Have fun with on this day!)


10       Human Rights Day     


13       Day of the Horse


16       National Chocolate-covered Anything Day (Ummm, I thought this was everyday!)


17       Clean Air Day


21       World Peace Day/Solstice


26       National Whiner's Day  (For all of the listings)


28 & 29        National Chocolate Day ( So good it had to have 2 days!)


31     Make Up Your Mind Day (Every homebuyer on this day WILL write an offer!)


31      No Interruptions Day ( Tell that to the kids!)


HAPPY ALL OF THESE DAYS TO YOU!

Yvette,

The month while is the best holiday month in my opinion, it is true that there are many other worth while events as your list shows.
