How to Participate in Wonder Week
8/23 Saturday: Swap + Share
A day to set out a “free box” or table with things to share—plants, books, toys, crafts, etc. Great for low-key community exchange.
8/24 Sunday: Soundtrack Sunday + Activity at Snookies
Know how to play an instrument? Give a spontaneous live performance! Play music from your porch or windows. More details TBA about Snookies activity.
8/25 Monday: Chalk the Walk
Leave encouraging messages and art on the sidewalk with chalk.
8/26 Tuesday: Flashlight Night
At sunset, take a twinkly twilight walk with flashlights, lanterns, or glow sticks. Decorate your yard with lights to add some extra glow.
8/27 Wednesday: Window Wonders
Decorate your windows with paper art, signs, or lights. Great for kids to make cutouts, rainbows, or encouraging messages.
8/28 Thursday: Porch Picnic
Eat a meal on porch or front yard. Wave to neighbors, play music, and enjoy the last days of summer together.
8/29 Friday: Costume Stroll
