Happy National Watermelon Day today! What a great “holiday,” right?! And on wild & wacky Wednesday, no less! Gosh, there are any number of ways to celebrate this day that can add fun for the entire family. You can eat it, you can carve it, you can have a seed-spitting contest, and when you’re all done, you can put the rinds out for the bees & butterflies! Watermelon is a healthy, sweet treat that tastes oh-so-good on these hot August days.
But it’s also National Clean Your Floors Day – huh?! Who comes up with these!? Maybe this was created because of all the mess a National Watermelon Day might create! 🙂
Regardless of which one you ‘celebrate’ today, have fun with it. (Yes – with a little creativity, you can make cleaning your floors fun.) Wild & wacky Wednesday is a great day of the week to remember to add a little levity to life. Do something fun with your kids. Humor is not only good for kids (age-appropriate, of course), but it’s good for you too. Laughter has physical as well as mental benefits and helps us feel closer to those we’re with. Enrich your relationship with your child by munching on some watermelon while you have mop races on the kitchen floor or create mop art on the front porch! 🙂
