National Heat Awareness Day

26

May

National Heat Awareness Day is a special day on May 26 to remind everyone about the dangers of being too hot, especially in the summer. It helps people learn how to stay safe when it's hot outside. On this day, we talk about drinking plenty of water, wearing light clothes, and taking breaks in the shade or indoors when playing or working outside. It's important because being too hot can make people sick. This day helps keep everyone healthy and happy when it's sunny and warm!

How to celebrate National Heat Awareness Day?

You can celebrate National Heat Awareness Day by spending time outside with friends and family. Play fun water games or have a water balloon fight to stay cool. Make refreshing drinks like lemonade or ice pops to enjoy. Wear a big hat and sunscreen to protect yourself from the sun. Build a small fort or tent in your backyard for some shade. Use a thermometer to check the temperature and learn what's too hot. Draw pictures with chalk on the sidewalk of cool things like ice cream or snowmen. Remember to drink lots of water and take breaks in the shade.
