Organize Your Home Office Day (March 5th)

International Fanny Pack Day (March 9th)

A trend that hit in the 1980s, fanny packs are small pouches strapped around the waist for carrying little items, such as phones, money, and other items too small to warrant large bags. Whether you call it a waist bag, a belly bag, a belt bag, a moon bag, or even a bum bag, there’s no denying the usefulness of this accessory. 

National Napping Day (March 11)

Napping is actually scientifically proven to be better for you than coffee or energy drinks. So now you can feel less guilty about enjoying this not so guilty pleasure. You may have lost that extra hour in the day but you can feel like you caught up on some sleep by celebrating the day in style.

K9 Veteran's Day (March 13th)

K9 dogs have been around ever since 1942, when an organization called Dogs for Defense was founded to train dogs to be sentries for supply depots. The program was approved by the U.S. Army in March 1942, the U.S. Army K9 Corps was founded on March 13, 1942, and the rest is history (literally).

Pi Day (March 14th)

For those who love a good pun, Pi Day (3.14) is a mathematical delight! Celebrate the mathematical constant π (pi) with a slice of your favorite pie. Whether you're a math enthusiast or just here for the tasty treats, Pi Day is a lighthearted celebration that combines the joy of numbers with the joy of indulgence.

St. Patrick's Day (March 17)

Get ready to embrace the luck of the Irish on St. Patrick's Day. Whether you're donning green attire, indulging in Irish cuisine, or enjoying a jig to traditional tunes, St. Patrick's Day is a lively celebration that turns the world into a sea of green and shamrocks.

First Day of Spring (March 20)

The equinox — which translates roughly in Latin to “equal night” — is when the sun sits vertically above the equator, making day and night equal across the planet. The Spring Equinox officially marks the beginning of spring in the Northern Hemisphere, and there are celebrations around the world to usher in longer days and springtime.

National Puppy Day (March 23rd)

National Puppy Day is a paw-some day for all dog enthusiasts to celebrate unconditional love and fawn over the undeniably cute furballs that bring so much happiness into this world. While we’re all softies when it comes to our four-legged friends, today is also designed to raise awareness about puppy mills and help prospective pet owners consider adoption.

Easter Sunday (March 31st)

Easter falls on March 31st this year, celebrated on the first Sunday after the first full moon following the spring equinox. The holiday has Christian roots but has also become popular in secular society for its other elements like the Easter bunny, and Easter eggs.
