There are several days of the year that are celebrated for individual members of the family. These include the obvious days for our parents, Father’s Day and Mother’s Day.
But there are also other special family days observed as well!
What Activities Can You Do?
You may have stumbled across this page looking for ideas on what you can do with your family.
Well, there are many activities, such as going on a day trip, out for a meal, or maybe having a barbecue in the backyard with your loved ones.
A family reunion is also a special occasion where you can chat with relatives that you haven’t seen in a long time.
Plenty of games to play!
And there are plenty of games that everyone can join in on, like charades for example.
Rather than discuss all the different kinds of activities, I want to explore the various special days that there are for each member of the family.
So, I hope that you do enjoy reading this page and discover a holiday that you did not even know existed before.
Please read on as like me I am sure that you will be quite surprised as to the days that do exist!
Express Your Thoughts Below!
I would love to hear from you.
How Many Days Are There?
You know I was quite surprised to uncover just how many days there actually are. There is practically a day set aside each year for nearly every member of the family.
Unfortunately there is no National Brother-In-Law Day or National Sister-In-Law Day.
So, if you did happen to come across this page looking for those days then I am sorry to say that you won’t find it.
But you never know, maybe one day there will be a celebration for these members of the family.
What’s the number?
Would it surprise you if I said that I have amassed on this page 26 different days?
Well, sit back and relax as I show you each and everyone of these days. And I will show you when to celebrate these days as well.
Days For Your Relatives and Parents!
We are all pretty familiar with both Mother’s Day and Father’s Day. They are celebrated all over the world.
Although you may not be aware that various days of the year are set aside for these special days. Yes, there are countries that celebrate mothers and fathers on different days than our own.
What also may surprise you is that the origins of these two special days can be traced thousands of years ago.
Of course we owe its modern incarnation to the Americans who have greatly commercialized these days to pay our respect to our parents.
NATIONAL SISTERS DAY
National Sisters Day on the first Sunday in August celebrates the unique bond between sisters. This particular set of siblings embrace moments that make them laugh and cringe. While they don’t always agree, sisters have each other’s backs.
All siblings have the odd argument here and there, but deep down there’s little way around the natural connection between siblings. Even those who don’t have a natural sister sibling know the bonds of sisterhood. Those who forge a relationship with their spouse’s sisters understand. Also, women who support each other through difficult times form a sisterhood.
A sister is like yourself in a different movie,
a movie that stars you in a different life. ~ Deborah Tannen
No two sisters are alike. From love interests to cars, sisters will disagree. And food, cleaning, and children require interventions. However, we rely on each other while privately envying a sister’s style, ability or grace. A sister understands when no one else does, sometimes when even you don’t. So, sister time provides vital healing.
Whether your sisters harrassed you from day one or found you later in life, this day brings you back together. Cherish the memories and make plans to create new ones. Reconnect or patch up any misunderstandings. Sisters are forever.
