How often do we stop to tell the kids and teens in our lives how incredible they are? What impressive qualities do you observe in them? Applaud who they are as a person and not just the good things they do?

Founded by Camp Fire in 1997, Absolutely Incredible Kid Day® (AIKD) is a national holiday that lifts up the kids and teens in our lives. Every year, on the third Thursday of March Camp Fire, along with our corporate and philanthropic partners, lead AIKD online and offline.

Participating in AIKD is a simple, meaningful way to let youth know how much they are appreciated. Your words are powerful—young lives are changed by this day and your simple acts of encouragement, love, and kindness.

Will you join us? Inspire, encourage, and uplift a kid in your life.

Need some ideas?

Send notes, emails, letters, texts, and videos (you choose!) to encourage and inspire young people across the country. The medium doesn't matter, but the message does: "You are incredible, and here's why."

Thank you!
