UPI 10th Birthday -April 11 2026 – 277  Days to go

"Be a Kid Again Day" (July 8) was founded in 1990 by Atari creator Nolan Bushnell to encourage adults to rediscover the joy and freedom of  childhood.
It aligns with psychological research showing that playful, youthful behavior reduces stress and boosts well-being.
The day has since grown in popularity, especially on social media, as a fun excuse to ditch adulting—even if just for a day.

Adulting is cancelled—I'm eating cereal for dinner and building a pillow fort. Happy Be a Kid Again Day!
