Original International Women's Day Gifts
Did you know that International Women's Day is celebrated each year on the 8th of March? It’s the perfect day to surprise the women in your life with a small token or gift. In Italy, for example, the tradition is to give a mimosa, a yellow flower symbolising women, but there are many other little gifts that work just as well.
Why do we celebrate International Women's Day?
This celebration started with the first political feminist movements to demand women's rights and soon became a symbol for raising awareness of various women's issues. Today it is mostly an opportunity to remember how hard women have fought over the years and reflect on the state of gender equality.
Why give a gift on International Women's Day?
You don't have to give a gift to all the women in your life on this special day, of course. You could instead use the day to reflect, send a message to someone you care about or support a cause that’s important to you.
