Whether it's having an outdoor picnic, playing board games inside, or going out for ice cream, make sure that this special day is filled with plenty of fun activities.
Gather all your cousins and their families together for a special day of catching up. Have everyone bring a dish and make it a potluck style event. You can even plan fun activities like board games, scavenger hunts, or team sports.
Show your appreciation from afar with a cute care package full of goodies. Include some homemade treats or snacks, a special message, and photographs to capture the memories.
Make sure all your cousins have the opportunity to celebrate together by setting up a video chat on Skype, Zoom, or FaceTime. It's the perfect way to catch up and reminisce about old times.
Rather than sending an email, take the time to write out an old fashioned letter expressing your love and appreciation for your cousins. They'll be sure to cherish it for years to come!
Gaming is one of the best ways to bond with your cousins! Have everyone join in on an online game or app that you can play together from different locations.
Cousins are great because they provide an opportunity for cousins both near and far to come together and enjoy each other's company. Whether you're having a sleepover or bonding over a game night, there's always plenty of laughter and memories to be made with your cousins!
Your cousins may not be related by blood, but they feel like family nonetheless! Cousins understand the importance of being connected and that is why it is important to take the time to recognize them on National Cousins Day.
Since cousins tend to be close in age, they often share similar life experiences which make them someone you can turn to when looking for advice. They will listen empathically as you seek out their opinion and offer constructive commentary every step of the way.
