Fun Days to Celebrate This Month - w/Free Calendar for your Fridge

March 2020

February 26, 2020


Spring is coming early this year. Usually the March Equinox falls on March 20th or 21st but not this year. It’s March 19th and this month we not only celebrate the beginning of a new season but also special holidays that highlight nature, education and health. Whether it be things to celebrate all month long or a special holiday just happening one day this month, we are here to help you make sure to have some special family fun. And you can print out this month’s calendar here:




Celebrate these things all month long:

March 1 - Peanut Butter Lovers Day

March 2 - Read Across America Day

March 6 - Dentist’s Day

March 8 - Daylight Saving

March 11 - Worship of Tools Day

March 12 - Plant a Flower Day

  • The start of spring celebrates flowers so this is the perfect time to plant seeds, create a flower craft, or create a flower or vegetable/herb garden with your kids.


March 14 - National Pi Day

March 17 - St. Patrick’s Day

March 19 - Absolutely Incredible Kid Day

  • We know, we know, every day is a celebration of our children but they’ll be super excited to know they’re an “absolutely incredible kid” when you celebrate this day. While they’re sleeping fill their room with balloons for a good morning surprise, make them a homemade card (we love getting those the best so why not our kids) or write your child a letter telling them how wonderful they are and list their fantastic qualities that are unique to just them. This is also a perfect way to celebrate if you have more than one child. Write to each one - I promise they will cherish that letter forever. 

March 25 - Waffle Day

  • Are you Team Pancake? Or Team Waffle? If you’re a waffle lover like me, this is the day for you and your own waffle maker is a must-have kitchen appliance! If you don’t have one yet here’s a review of a Belgian Waffle Maker and if you already have one here’s a spin on the traditional breakfast waffles - Waffle & Bacon Delight

March 27 - World Theatre Day 

  • Kids love the theatre and generally speaking toddlers through age 4 are ready to see their first show. Keep it short, about a half hour and no longer than an hour, and find one with lots of participation so your kids can move around and feel like they’re part of the show. Many local museums and puppet theatre have shows geared specifically for young children. Preschoolers and elementary age children can usually sit longer but you know your child so when they’re ready introduce them to a local theatre or your local school so that it’s not too expensive in case you need to leave early (maybe they weren’t quite ready yet).

March 29 - National Mom and Pop Business Owners Day

  • I can list a ton of reasons why you should shop local like how business owners live in the community so you're supporting local families and entrepreneurship. I can write forever about how these business owners sponsor local teams, donate to schools, support PTAs and non-profit organizations. I can bore you to death with statistics from Forbes like "Independent businesses create about two-thirds of private sector jobs" or "Local businesses create the majority of economic growth, employing about 77 million Americans and improving stability in communities". When we shop locally, our money stays in the community but ultimately, it's also about YOU. When you shop locally, lots of times you get to know the owners. They know what you like, they sell local products, you make a connection. You're not just another random customer which in turns makes customer service and making YOU happy that much more important. 

March 30 - Take a Walk in the Park Day

  • This fun activity is perfect for the whole family, every age, and it’s totally FREE. Spend time together, talking, laughing and walking in your local park.
