WILD THANG EDUCATIONAL FACTS

- The earliest historical record of a pen with a reservoir dates back to the 10th century AD. In 953, Ma'ād al-Mu'izz, the Fatimid Caliph of Egypt, demanded a pen which would not stain his hands or clothes and was provided with a pen which held ink in a reservoir and delivered it to the nib.

- Children in Germany receive special paper cones called Schultüte when they begin school. Traditionally, the cones are filled with stationary along with some treats

- Kids in Finland do not start school until the age of 7, which is one of the oldest ages around the world to start school.

- Russia has a ‘knowledge day’ on September 1st every year, and it is when children first go to school. This is regardless of whether or not is on a weekend or a holiday.

For your Summer and Festival Merchandise Inspiration, Wildthang presents #BeachFest

Summer has arrived, so don’t let the temperatures be the only hot topic people are discussing this year. Here you will find some creative branded clothing, merchandise and print options that will keep your promotion or campaign hot, hot, hot this summer!

We thought we would bring some wild and fun facts...

DID YOU KNOW? #SummerEdition

- The first day of summer arrived in the UK with the solstice on 21 June, 2022.

- The hottest day ever recorded in the UK was 25 July, 2019 in Cambridge where it reached a sizzling 38.7°C.

- The south and north are opposites. When it is summer in the south, this means that it is winter in the north.

- The invention of the popular ice lolly in 1905 was actually accidental. An 11-year-old boy in the USA had left his fizzy drink sitting outside and by the next morning it had frozen. He began selling them at an amusement park in New Jersey.

- Oui! The rumours are true, the Eiffel Tower is taller in the warmer summer months, the iron in the Eiffel Tower expands, making the tower grow more than 6 inches.
