Last year I scoured the internet, books, and interviewed friends and readers and asked for the important holidays and festivals in their country. I looked at religious holidays from Baha’i, Buddhism, Christianity, Hinduism, Jainism, Judaism, Islam, Shinto and Sikhism. But it is not only an interfaith calendar- I also asked my readers and friends to fill in their favorite cultural and national festivals from their country. Together, we created one huge multicultural, world calendar with diverse celebrations from around the globe, and from all of our major religions!
Classes can print this and use it to learn about the world, and I will slowly be adding links to the festivals so we can continue to learn and read more.
This is a project that is continually being updated- and I need your help! As much as I research and read, I am bound to miss some important holidays and festivals. Please leave any special day that I missed in the comments, and I will add it into the calendar! Enjoy!
What do you think? I love to hear from my readers:).
