National Girlfriends Day takes place on 1st August, bringing us a day dedicated to appreciating our gal pals. In honor of friendship, we've compiled a list of 12 healthy, fun ways you and your girlfriends can celebrate the day, including some tasks to explore together, and challenges to set yourselves!

So round up your closest female friends, and tackle this list...

Assign a different themed dessert to each friend, set the timer, and compete against each other in a friendly bake-off! Even if the baking goes disastrously wrong, you'll be left with a load of cake, a bunch of hungry girls, and a triumphant feeling of hard work!
