Alphabetize Backwards
Today, if you have any opportunities to put things in alphabetical order then go ahead and pop the Z’s up front. This would be a simple task if you were a school teacher. Be a rebel and go for reverse alphabetical order if you want!
Celebrate Z Day with Kids
Kids love opposite days like this. But maybe you don’t really have a chance to put things in alphabetical order so you could draw some pictures of random Z-named things. Get really abstract and creative with your Z art and put it somewhere for the world to see. Or maybe you work with someone with a Z name and could treat them extra special today. Take your Z buddy out to lunch or help them out with their work today.
Make Some Z Purchases
Maybe you could even buy something that starts with a Z like a Zenith watch or a Zune. There are plenty of different products out there that start with a Z! You could even go to a zoo if it’s open and check out the zebras. Now if only they’d let you ride one… Or you could catch your favorite zombie flick and try not to get the hunger for brains yourself. Heck, dress up as a zombie and give hugs to people with Z names!
Get a Z Tattoo
Or if you’re really crazy you could tattoo a Z on your body and celebrate for the rest of your life! That would be the ultimate way to show your appreciation for this wonderful letter. It’s all up to you really. Be creative! Show your appreciation to people and things that may not feel as loved because they have an uncommon letter in their name.
Throw a Z Day Party
If you really feel like making the most of this day, why not throw a party? After all, it is also the start of a new year, and so there is plenty to celebrate. To make sure that you are observing Z Day, you could encourage everyone to come in a fancy dress outfit that begins with the letter Z. It’s not the easiest letter in the world for fancy dress, but there are plenty of great options. We’re sure a lot of people will turn up dressed as zebras, but don’t let your imagination be limited to just this zoo animal. How about dressing up as Zoro? Or, what about Zack Morris from Saved By The Bell? A zombie is another option! Or, how about a zulu warrior? As you can see, there are lots of great ideas, and this is a fun way to celebrate Z Day!
