Invent Your Own Holiday

Last Sunday, some folks celebrated a holiday. What was it?
I'll give you a few minutes to think about it... 
*Sings: "When Irish Eyes are Smiling..."* 

Did you guess St. Patrick's Day?

You don't have to be Irish to enjoy the day! It's fun to celebrate ALL holidays!
Ever wonder how St. Patty's Day came about?
Click HERE for a quick explanation.

So, what's this have to do with writing?
Today, I want YOU to invent your own holiday. Just like the description on the link above, write a small paragraph telling how the holiday came about and what is celebrated. BE CREATIVE.

If I had to invent a holiday, I'd make one called:  National Writing Day!

Write On!
