National Bobblehead Day was established by the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum to celebrate the spring-necked collectible — whose modern revival traces to 1999, when the San Francisco Giants distributed a Willie Mays bobblehead, sparking MLB’s wave of promotional giveaways. Distaff Day is the traditional European observance on January 7, when women historically returned to their spinning distaffs after the twelve days of Christmas — marking the practical end of the holiday season. Old Rock Day celebrates rocks — the sedimentary, igneous, and metamorphic formations recording billions of years of Earth’s geological history — and encourages people to examine and appreciate a rock. I Am a Mentor Day encourages volunteering as a mentor and recognizes mentoring relationships in professional and personal development.
