National Thank You Note Day - Tuesday, December 26, 2023

Special Interest Activities

Think thank you notes don’t exist these days? Think again… December 26 is National Thank You Note Day. Put your phone down, dust off your stationary, and get to writing. There is no official known reason to as why this day was created, but we have a feeling it has to do with the many presents people may have received on December 25.

Why We Love National Thank You Note Day

They're handwritten
In a time when technology drives our daily lives, it is nice to put down our computers, grab a pen and paper, and write a personalized thank you note. Scribbly penmanship acceptable, but not encouraged.
They make us feel special
Whether you are on the receiving end or the one writing them, thank you notes are a unique way of giving thanks to someone for something that they have done — whether it was a gift received, an uplifting conversation had, or simply being who they are. Thank you notes make everyone feel loved.
It allows us to practice our penmanship
Texts, emails, and emojis have the same design and lack the personal touch that is embodied in our unique handwriting. Writing thank you notes provides an opportunity to practice our cursive, which will improve with the more notes you write.
