happy world smile day 2022 history theme celebrations with loved ones
7th October is celebrated as World Smile Day every year in most of the countries around the globe. The theme for World Smile Day 2022 is that a smile has no boundaries.
World Smile Day 2022: We all enjoy keeping a smile. A simple grin can relieve even the worst stress in your life. Even better is when you enable someone else to grin because of you.
This is the purpose of World Smile Day. Every year, the holiday is observed on the first Friday in October, which is October 7 this year.
The idea for World Smile Day was first put forth by American artist Harvey Ball. He created the recognizable smiling face image in 1963.

Harvey eventually realized that the “over-commercialization” of his insignia had robbed it of its original meaning.
He created the idea for World Smile Day, a day devoted to deeds of kindness, as a result of his worry. The first Friday in October has been recognized as World Smile Day since 1999.
The Harvey Ball World Smile Foundation was started in his honor when he passed away in 2001.
Every smile is celebrated on this day, and people are urged to be kind to one another. A smile knows no political, geographic, or cultural barriers, according to the day’s topic.
World Smile Day is observed in various creative and original ways by people all around the world.
Since 2000, the Worcester Historical Society in Massachusetts has been throwing a ball to commemorate this day. The Harvey Ball Smile Award and other activities with a smiley-face theme are held at the ball.
