Welcome back, Wonder World listeners! It's Pam and Olivia here, come along with us as we gallop through an array of fun holidays and festivities for the third week of July! Do you know what today is? It’s Monday, July 15th, which means it's Celebration of the Horse Day and National I Love Horses Day! To all you horse lovers out there, enjoy your day and give those magnificent creatures an extra pat for us.

Did you know that July 16th is Fresh Spinach Day and Guinea Pig Appreciation Day? We even pondered how you might celebrate your adorable guinea pig—maybe with a special salad! As the week unfolds, savor National Hot Dog Day, National Peach Ice Cream Day, and even World Emoji Day on July 17th. 

We also have some noteworthy birthdays this week, including South Pole Explorer Roald Amundsen born on July 16, 1872, and of course, a very special happy birthday to our Wonder World Kids Club members. 

We’ve got a bunch of giggle-worthy jokes straight from our young listeners and get ready to dive into some intriguing trivia about guinea pigs.

Gather the whole family and hit play. It's time to let Wonder World whisk you away into another fun-filled episode. See you there!
