If you could make up a new holiday, when would it be and what would it celebrate?

What Would Be Your New Holiday About?

Making memories as a family is essential, and this is what the ‘Family Bonding Holiday’ would be about. How cool would that be! It would be celebrated on September 1 every year before the start of the next school season, after which everyone becomes too engrossed in themselves. The purpose would primarily be to bring all family members and relatives in person to celebrate the bond between family members.

On this occasion, schools, colleges, offices, and other institutions would be closed. Everyone would be encouraged to spend a day off all social networks.

How Would You Celebrate?

A few preparatory steps for this day would be:

Inform all your relatives well in advance so that they can plan to travel.
Create holiday e-invites and send them out on time.
Plan a list of delicious recipes for the entire day.
Shop all the party supplies.
Get a theme-based decoration done. You could also include collages of family photos.

While there are a plethora of ways to celebrate this day, here are a few of them:

Games round: Older family members can teach the kids some games they would play as children. In the next round, the children can teach the older people video games.
Who am I: It is a game where every family member would describe another family member without disclosing the name. Others have to guess it.
Chinese whisper: The first player whispers a message into the ear of the next player, who repeats it to the next player, and so on.
Minute to win it: It involves completing a challenge within a minute. Blowing balloons, arranging cards, finding coins in a bowl of rice, etc.

On this occasion, there would be lots of photos and memories of a lifetime. If we could make up a Family Bonding Holiday, it would definitely be the best holiday of the year!
