Holidays of the Seasons

Story By: Andrew Frinkle

In Spring, we have holidays with colors that remind us of flowers growing. St. Patrick's Day is green in March. Don't forget that silly holiday April Fool's! We also have Memorial Day in May, so lay some flowers out.

In Summer, we have a lot of family holidays and patriotic holidays. Flag Day is in June, so show your pride. In May there is Cinco de Mayo, when many people try food from Mexico. Mother's Day is Also in May, and you should get some pretty flowers! Father's Day is shortly after in June, so get dad something nice! In July, we have Independence Day, where fireworks are flying high.

In the Fall, we have festivals the colors of harvest. In october, there is orange, brown, and black Halloween. Let's not forget Columbus Day, because that was important for our history. In November, we see those colors again in Pumpkins, pie, and turkey. Veteran's Day is also in November, too!

In Winter, we have holidays that are mostly white, red, and gold! The end of the calendar year has Christmas in red and white. There are many religious and cultural holidays in the Winter, too. New Year's is full of bright and colorful fireworks splashing in the sky. January has New Year's Day, and it is often white outside with snow. January or February is when we have the red and gold Chinese New Year. February has Valentine's Day, which is often red and full of cheer. Groundhog Day in February reminds us of winter's coming end.

There are too many holidays to count, these and many more. They come and go, and then the seasons start over!
