Peter Pan Day (1953)-- Peter Pan is a 1953 American animated fantasy adventure film produced by Walt Disney and based on the play Peter Pan, or The Boy Who Wouldn't Grow Up by J. M. Barrie. It is the 14th Disney animated feature film and was originally released on February 5, 1953, by RKO Radio Pictures. The Peter Pan movie was about a mischievous boy who can fly and magically refuses to grow up. Peter Pan spends his never-ending childhood adventuring on the small island of Neverland as the leader of his gang the Lost Boys, interacting with mermaids, Indians, fairies, pirates, and (from time to time) meeting ordinary children from the world outside.

Sale of the first Wiffle Ball (1953)

National Weather Persons Day (1744)

World Nutella Day (2007)
- Nutella is more than just a
chocolaty hazelnut spread, it is a way of life. From childhood memories to oozing hot crepes, from breakfasts on vacation to free-spooning sessions on the couch, Nutella is prominent in the memories of many children and grown-up children in the world. In 2007, we gave Nutella its own holiday, and every year we continue the tradition.
Chinese New Year
