FAMILY VOLUNTEER DAY
The first reason why many families do volunteer work is that they feel satisfied and proud. The feeling of fulfillment comes from helping the community and other people. In addition, volunteering is a great way for families to have fun and feel closer. But many people say they don't have time to volunteer because they have to work and take care of their families. If that's the case, try rethinking some of your free time as a family. You can select just one or two projects a year and make them a family tradition. For instance, your family can make and donate gift baskets for the old homeless people on holidays. Your family can also spend only one Saturday morning a month collecting rubbish in your neighbourhood.

The Egytians was the fist people ever to make perfume. They used-smelling oils on their bodies before getting dressed. Some perfume recipes, that date from about 5.000 years ago, still exist. Most of the perfumes at that time are made from flowers and only the very richest people could afford buying them.
Today, perfumes are usually created with a perfume company. As well as ingerdients from over 500 plants, other ingredients are making by chemists in a laboratory. One of the most famous place that produces perfume is the town of Grasse in France. Its climate makes it perfectly for growing flowers - around 4.000 kilos of rose, for example can be used to make just a small number of perfume. After a perfume is made, much time and money is spent on desiging a bottle and box and advertises it
