World Smile Day

Oct

World Smile Day is a special day celebrated on the first Friday in October. It was created by Harvey Ball, the artist who designed the famous yellow smiley face. The idea is to do acts of kindness and make others smile. It's a time when people around the world are encouraged to be friendly, show kindness, and help each other. By spreading joy and laughter, we make the world a happier place. It's like a big party where everyone tries to make their friends, family, and even strangers feel happy and loved just by sharing smiles.

How to celebrate World Smile Day?

Start the day by making a big, happy breakfast. Draw smiley faces with food, like pancakes or toast. Then, create colorful smiley stickers or drawings to share with friends and family. Go outside and play games that make everyone laugh, like tag or hide-and-seek. Spend time telling jokes or funny stories with your friends. Offer a friendly smile to anyone you meet, like neighbors or classmates. Later, watch a funny movie or cartoon with your family. Before bedtime, write down three things that made you smile today, and keep them in a special jar for happy memories.
