National Notebook Day, is celebrated on the third Thursday of May, and this year, it falls on May 16. It’s a holiday that encourages people to record their thoughts, events, and information in a notebook. It is especially important to have a notebook or journal if you are the type of person whose mind goes so many places at once. One of the reasons why keeping track of your ideas is beneficial is that it helps to focus the mind. People will often revisit their journal entries when they need inspiration or ideas.

WHY WE LOVE NATIONAL NOTEBOOK DAY

1.   It promotes creativity

National Notebook Day is dedicated to preserving the art of handwriting and notebook making while promoting creativity and self-expression through writing by hand. National Notebook Day is a day to celebrate everyone’s writing style.

2.   It makes our children more creative

National Notebook Day is a chance to encourage children to use notebooks creatively. Children can draw pictures of what they do during the day, play games like tic-tac-toe, or design their own notebook covers.

3.   It creates appreciation

On National Notebook Day, people get the chance to show their appreciation for notebooks by taking the time to reflect on how they help us achieve our goals in life. While this day was created with a focus on writing and doodling, notebooks can also be used to document many other things like sketches, lists, recipes, and more.
