Big Wind Day is celebrated on April 12 and remembers a super windy day in 1934 when really strong winds were recorded on Mount Washington in New Hampshire, USA. These winds were some of the fastest ever measured on Earth. On this day, people think about the power of nature and how strong and amazing the wind can be. Some schools and weather fans might do fun activities or projects to learn more about wind and weather. It's a day to be curious about how wind works and how it affects our world.
How to celebrate Big Wind Day?
On Big Wind Day, you can go outside and fly a colorful kite high in the sky. Feel the cool breeze on your face as you watch your kite dance with the wind. You can also make windmills out of paper and see them spin. If there's a park nearby, play a game where you pretend to be the wind, running freely and twirling. You can learn about different kinds of winds, and maybe even make a windsock to see which direction the wind is blowing. End the day with a windy storybook or a movie with wind themes.
