International Babushka Day

International Babushka Day by Peter Santenello

International Babushka Day this Sunday, June 24! The purpose of this holiday is to brighten a Babushka’s day and to see the positive affects it has in whatever city or town you live in.

It’s very simple; give a flower(s) to a random babushka on the street. There’s a chance she might reject it, but most likely she’ll take it happily and give you a glowing smile, a thank you, and a warm feeling inside.

If you want to inspire others and the moment feels right, take a picture and #babushkaday

Here's a 6-minute video of my experience.
