Loomis Day is celebrated on May 30th to honor Mahlon Loomis, an inventor who was one of the first people to think about wireless communication, like how we use Wi-Fi today. He lived a long time ago and dreamed of sending messages through the air without using wires. Even though he didn't have all the tools we have now, his ideas helped inspire future inventions that let us send texts and use the internet without cables. Loomis Day reminds us to appreciate the creativity and dreams that lead to amazing discoveries.
How to celebrate Loomis Day?
On Loomis Day, try inventing something new! Gather your friends for a fun day of drawing, building, or creating. Use cardboard, tape, and markers to design a cool gadget or artwork. Have everyone share their inventions and explain what they do. Later, host a mini science fair where everyone can show off their creations. Maybe even dress up as famous inventors and have a pretend "award show" for the silliest or most creative invention. Celebrate with snacks and drinks, and take lots of pictures to remember the day. End by watching a cool science or invention-themed movie together.
