See? I told you.

If you prefer celebrating a week at a time, June has:

International Volunteers Week (1st week)
National Fishing Week (1st week)
National Flag Week (2nd week)
National Little League Baseball Week (2nd week)
National Clay Week (2nd week)
National Camping Week (4th week)

and if you take your months whole, June is:

Children's Awareness Month
Dairy Month
National Adopt-A-Cat Month
National Candy Month
National Drive Safe Month
National Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Month
National Iced Tea Month
National Rose Month
National Safety Month
National Tennis Month
Turkey Lovers Month
Zoo and Aquarium Month

June’s birthstones (there are two) are Agate and Pearl, and its flower is the Rose.

All of this is in the U.S., of course. If you live somewhere else, your country probably has its own list.

If you want to celebrate National Pickle Week, that happened last month. You’ll have to wait until next year.

In the meantime, let’s go fly a kite (4:15).
