Whether is going on a walk in one of Louisville’s many parks or going out to eat, there is no shortage of ways for mothers (or any other parent or guardian who serves as such) to celebrate National Daughters Day with their child.
National Daughters Day started far away from Kentucky but the United States adopted the day in recent years to honor the mother-daughter bond.
Here’s what you need to know about National Daughters Day:
When is National Daughters Day 2024?
Sept. 25 is National Daughters Day, according to National Day Calendar.
How did National Daughters Day start?
National Daughters Day was first observed in India where daughters were often less valued than sons and consequently received less attention. It was adopted in the U.S. in the early 2000s to honor the unique bond between parents and their daughters.
How to celebrate National Daughter’s Day
Marking the occasion does not have to be an expensive and elaborate plan. There are different ways to observe National Daughter’s Day:
- Spend quality time together: Go shopping, arrange a dinner date, go for a walk. As long as your daughter is the focus, any activity is time well spent.
- Show your gratitude by letting your daughter know how much she’s loved and cherished: A simple “I love you,” or perhaps a little gift can show her how you feel.
- Have a conversation: Family life can sometimes get so busy it’s hard to find time to really talk. So, take a moment to put that right by chatting with your daughter and sharing stories and memories of your time together.
- Empower your daughter: Encourage her to pursue her dreams, explore her interests, and believe in herself so that she can realize her full potential.
