Description:

There is a holiday for every day of the year. Since we will all be using the same holiday calendar, go to this website for the calendar month of March: http://holidayinsights.com/moreholidays/march.htm

Using this calendar, you'll pick 4 different holidays from the month, you choose which four, and send something to your partner that has to do with the holidays you choose. It can be a news article, craft, purchased item, etc. Try to mix it up a little. Anything that comes to mind that represents that holiday. There are so many fun holidays this month! For ex: March 20 is Earth Day. You might make and send a recycled craft. March 26 is Make Up Your Own Holiday Day. That would be a fun day and a freebie! Do what you want for that day! March 29 is National Mom & Pop Business Owners Day. Maybe support your local business and buy something from them. Use your imagination! So you will send your partner a total of 4 items. After you have collected the 4 items, please send them all together to your partner by the assigned deadline of February 23. This is USA/Canada only, 1 partner, and anyone with 4.9 ratings or better, and no recent unexplainable no-sends or lateness. New swappers with a full profile are welcome. This will be fun!

Whoever I get, I will also include Dr. Suess's Birthday which is on March 2nd. As a preschool teacher, Dr. Suess and I are good friends.

And also, this is my favorite swap that I've done. It's so fun to be creative and pick out fun things for these holidays.

BassClarinetNerd~I'm glad you like this swap! Dr. Suess is a favorite of mine also and I'm always talking in rhyme!

I am going to try this swap again, because it has potential to be fun. I had fun doing the last one (getting MY holidays together), but I wasn't impressed with what my partner sent me (a bunch of cut up pieces of paper). Some people really lack the creative gene. I have already looked at the list of holidays and am ready to go! :-)

This sounds like the BEST swap idea ever, I love it!

@bruxbaby You got cut up pieces of paper?! That's awful! That's not even fun. I'm sad that somebody thought that was okay to do.

Is this a large envelop or a box swap? Or does it matter?

craftygirl 01/27/2012 #

However it all fits, as long as you send a nice swap!

@Weddingbells I sent a 6x9 envelope last time and I was able to send some great things.

I'm going to have to join this month since it is my birthday month and I see my special day is National Goof Off Day -- perfect for me!
