History of National Sons Day
The push to create a National Sons Day came in the 1990s when people wanted a specific day for boys. The records suggested that a group of the National Son's Day group ultimately came up with “National Take Your Sons to Work Day” in 1998, but the two days merged in 2003 until Nico revived the idea in 2018.
Like National Daughters Day, Jill Nico brought back the theme of observing sons in 2018, wanting to celebrate boys and others who foster them. It is still believed that parents desired to celebrate their boys in the same vein as National Daughters Day. Consequently, many choose to celebrate National Sons Day on March 4. Even though it is not an official national holiday, social media and word-of-mouth promotion have led to increased awareness and celebration every year.
