Snow Day Superstitions

Snow Day Superstitions

Who didn’t enjoy a snow day growing up?

Growing up, I would have done just about anything for a snow day. Yet I was completely unaware there are some superstitions out there to help grant that snow day. A few of my friends are teachers and they filled me in on a few rituals they do to hopefully cancel school. These superstitious rituals have no rhyme or reason nor am I sure of their success rate, but what’s the harm in trying?

From what I have been told you perform all these the night before you want snow to come:

1. Wear your pajamas inside out and backwards.
2. Sleep with a spoon under your pillow.
3. Flush an ice cube down the toilet for every inch of snow you want.
4. Place a white crayon in the windowsill.
5. Sleep backwards — with your feet at the top of the bed and your head at the bottom.
6. Brush your teeth with the opposite hand.
