Silly Celebrations in January

Howdy Party People!

As the result of a recent SquidQuest about wacky holidays and obscure celebrations that take place in January, we received oodles of really fun lenses. There were just too many to choose a few to showcase here so I prepared a lens that features just about all of them.

Stop by Silly Celebrations – January to have a look-see and to get yourself prepared for some new ways to celebrate during that down time that comes right after Christmas.

It might seem silly to make lenses about holidays during the month they take place and if you’re just looking for attention to a lens right now, you’re probably right. But… these lenses will have a full year to marinate, and get tweaked to perfection, before next January when the interest level and traffic to them will be high. Making lenses ahead of time is always a good idea and many times timely lenses get chosen for special honors like Lens of the Day or to be showcased in SquidooHQ posts.

If you were a part of the January fun, stay tuned to your Quest Tab for the February edition of the Silly Celebrations SquidQuest… coming soon!

PS… We’re also preparing a special Best-of Squidoo MonsterBoard that will be showcasing some of the very best silly celebration lenses at the end of the year where many of the January lenses will be making a come back!

Robin, what a great idea to start lenses ahead of time! It indeed gives us, little Squidsters, time to gather the best material possible and perfect our writing creations. Looking forward to future SquidQuests!

It’s always a good idea to give your lenses plenty of time beforehand. Topics like Christmas can be written about all year long. Thanks for your interest in the SquidQuests. We love to hear that! :)

I usually get around to writing about holidays during or right afterwards. But then I have everything set for the next year.

Starting them ahead of time makes it easier and more fun to be honest. I love special and zany holidays.
