1. Dr Martin Luther King Day

Answer: Jan-April

On the third Monday of January every year, we celebrate the life of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Dr. King was a leader in the civil rights movement and changed many of the policies in the United States. Since 1986, it has been a federal holiday and schools typically take this day off.
2. Groundhog Day

Answer: Jan-April

Groundhog Day is celebrated every year on February 2nd so the day of the week will change from year to year. The belief is that if the Punxsutawney Phil, a groundhog, sees his shadow we will have a longer winter season.
3. St Patrick's Day

Answer: Jan-April

St Patrick's Day is the holiday where everyone wears green to celebrate the Irish holiday. It occurs on March 17th every year. Originally it was a religious holiday but has become more of a celebration of Irish culture in recent years.
4. Arbor Day

Answer: Jan-April

Ok, this is a hard one! Arbor Day is a holiday where everyone is encouraged to plant a tree. It occurs on April 25th and is a celebration of the trees that keep our ecosystem strong.
5. Star Wars Day

Answer: May-August

May 4th may not sound like a famous date in history but if you describe it as "may the fourth be with you", you'll recognize the most famous quote from the Star Wars movie series. In the blockbuster movie, Luke Skywalker is told to trust the force and "may the force be with you". It's not an official holiday, but many people celebrate it!
6. Independence Day

Answer: May-August

Most people call Independence Day by its date of celebration, the 4th of July. The U.S. officially recognized Independence Day in 1870 but it had been observed for almost a hundred years before then. In 1777, the first 4th of July celebration was observed but unfortunately fireworks weren't involved yet.
7. Memorial Day

Answer: May-August

Memorial Day is a day of celebration held on the last Monday of the month of May. Many of the rights and freedoms we have in the United States came at the expense of our military veterans who risked their lives in major wars. This day of memorial has been a US holiday since 1868.
8. Father's Day

Answer: May-August

Mother's Day has become a more celebrated day than Father's Day, but the third Sunday in June is dedicated to dads. It was established in 1910 by Sonora Smart Dodd in Spokane, Washington as a complement to the already existing Mother's Day holiday.
9. Halloween

Answer: September-December

October 31st is the day of costumes, candy, trick-or-treating, and scary movies! The celebration began in the U.S. in the 19th century with traditions used by Irish and Scottish settlers.
10. Thanksgiving

Answer: September-December

Thanksgiving is celebrated on the fourth Thursday in November. It became an official US holiday in 1863 under President Lincoln. In modern times, Thanksgiving has become "turkey day" with NFL games and major parades on television.
11. Labor Day

Answer: September-December

Labor Day is celebrated on the first Monday of September each year. It has been a federal holiday since 1894 under President Cleveland. Labor Day is a rare holiday with no major "fun" traditions but most businesses and schools are closed for this observance.
12. New Year's Eve

Answer: September-December

New Year's Eve is celebrated on December 31st, the last day of the year. When the clock strikes midnight, we celebrate and flip our calendars to the next year.
