Family Holidays

Many holidays throughout the year are meant to be enjoyed with your family and friends but what about the ones that are made specifically about them? Everyone knows about Mother’s Day and Father’s Day, but it’s only fair the kids get one too with National Daughters Day on September 25 and and National Sons Day September 28. There’s even family holidays to celebrate the ones who aren’t with us anymore. The Day of the Dead is celebrated on November 2 and is a culturally significant holiday in Mexico that seeks to honor our departed loved ones. Whichever one peaks your interest, there are 14 family related holidays during the calendar year to enjoy.
