Mother Goose Day

When: Always on May 1st

It does not appear to represent a particular person, as many of ""Mother Goose"" stories were written both before and after this term was first used. And, the stories were written by numerous authors.

Enjoy ""Mother  Goose Day"" by reading Mother Goose stories and rhymes to your children or grandchildren.
