Below is a list of October National Days, both monthly and daily observances. Incorporate fun activities that are related to the day. We will link to our activities as we complete them. Page one lists monthly observances while page two lists them by day.
There is no “official” list of monthly and daily observances and I am only listing ones that are kid and family oriented. I like to use these National Days to create fun opportunities to introduce new topics and fun activities. I use National Day Calendar and National Today to create my list. Check out their websites for more information on each day listed below and additional days.
