When is Eat Ice Cream for Breakfast Day? This holiday is observed on the first Saturday of February
Today is International Eat Ice Cream for Breakfast Day. Can you think of anything better to have for breakfast? Me neither. So, leave the cereal in the cupboard. Mom, don’t bother making pancakes or French toast. The family won’t eat it today. Just bring out the ice cream, chocolate fudge, whipped cream, and all of the toppings to make a huge sundae. It’s going to be memorable, make that historic breakfast that the kids will ask for over and over again.
It’s mid-winter. The snow and cold seem like they will never come to an end. Spring seems so far away. Stuck in a mid-winter funk, and suffering from cabin fever, it’s time to do something, weird, odd, and quirky.
To get the full excitement about this special day, tell the kids what’s gonna happen a few days before it arrives. The eager anticipation will lift their spirits and help to make winter go by just a little quicker.
So, who’s ready to eat ice cream for breakfast!!! ….YEAHHHHH!!!!!!!!

History and Origin of International Eat Ice Cream for Breakfast Day
This very special day was created out of sheer winter boredom in the 1960s. A mom in Rochester, NY. decided it was time to give her kids something to look forward to, other than another day of gray skies and snowfall. So, she created this day with her two young boys. It sure did the trick, if only for a little while.
