February Special Days

Although February is just a short month it has a number of special days.

We just had Groundhog Day on Monday. Depending on where you live you will have more or less winter based on whether it was sunny or not.

Or not!

Maybe next year I will write more about Groundhog Day. I was too busy last night writing about the New Newbery Books to write about Groundhog Day.

Of course February brings Valentine’s Day.

You can get in the Valentine’s Day spirit by visiting the posts below:

Maybe this year I will find some more old Valentines to share with you.

Another February holiday centers around our Presidents and depending on where you live it may have a different official designation.

Which is correct? Is is Washington’s Birthday? Is it Presidents’ Day? If it is Presidents’ Day how do you punctuate the name?

For more about the name of the holiday you can see my post: President’s, Presidents’ or Presidents

Depending on where you live you may also celebrate Lincoln’s Birthday.

Also this month is the Chinese New Year, so you may see some New Year Fireworks.

Ash Wednesday is in February this year and perhaps I will write a post about it, or maybe not. It all depends on where my mind wanders at that time.

Stick around to see what I write about this month.
