When is National Cousins Day?
Monday July 24thOn July 24th, National Cousins Day honors the lifelong friendships that develop among cousins. Our first friendships with cousins begin as infants and last a lifetime.
#nationalcousinsday
If cousins grow up in close-knit families or only see each other occasionally, they share common memories from grandparents, aunts, and uncles. At family reunions, cousins entertain each other and get into trouble together, as well. They're birthdays and may even blow out the other's candles to their cousin's annoyance. When their siblings annoy them, cousins become an ally. Sometimes cousins seem more like siblings, especially if they are only children.
As cousins get older, watching their children grow reminds them of their youth. And that's when the cycle begins anew.
Every age of cousins is celebrated on this day – new baby cousins and cousins whose babies are all grown up.
