Summary
Find out the dates, history and traditions of Bubble Gum Day.

Imagine being able to chew bubble gum at school while helping a worthy cause! Today children around the world will be doing just that.

On Bubble Gum Day, everyone who donates 50 cents or more gets to chew gum in school, with proceeds going to any charity the school chooses. Kids have fun, while raising money for a good cause. Some creative teachers even incorporate bubble gum into their lessons for the day!

The celebration isn’t limited to schools – many libraries, community centers, and even businesses hold bubble gum day events. After all, why should kids have all the fun?

Don't forget to get your principal's permission! If your school or business plans to celebrate and is willing to be interviewed by the media, please notify the organizers in advance so that we can match media requests with local celebrations.

Observed Annually, the first Friday in February. The day was started in 2006 by children’s book author Ruth Spiro, Bubble Gum Day has become a sweet success!
