December 6th, 2024
Mitten Tree Day is based on the book The Mitten Tree by Candace Christiansen. The story is about a woman who knits mittens and hangs them on a tree for children who can't play in the snow because they don't have mittens. It is observed on December 6th to celebrate the gift of warmth and the tradition of giving mittens to those in need.
