International Drop a Rock Day

This is a playful, unofficial day that invites you to leave a nice rock where someone else will stumble on it. A tiny surprise for a stranger can brighten an ordinary day.

How it is celebrated: people paint smooth stones, add a kind word or a small picture, and tuck them onto park benches, trails and garden walls. Whoever finds one can keep it or hide it again for the next person.

These so-called kindness rocks usually carry a short message, so the find sticks in the memory.
