I believe there is already a bunny and eggs icon for Easter in the game.
Presidents Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, and Veterans Day are considered national or federal holidays, therefore, the American Flag icon is appropriate.
If you're not satisfied with the American Flag icon for Labor Day, then I would suggest a hammer icon.
A yellow ribbon icon for Memorial Day and Veterans Day could be used as an alternative.

As for the lack of art available for the holiday icons, since I do digital art I'd be happy to make some new icons if people wanted them, but unfortunately I'd have no idea how to mod them into the game :(

There should be other countries' flags not just US

Here's another mod with more icons. modthesims.info/download.php?t=616166

hope someone can make "sleep/nap" a traddition I would *so* download that mod

This is not a new tradition but I thought I would post here anyway. This mod enables kids and teens to ask for treats to help satisfy the trick or treat tradition. It has additional functionality for adults, too, in case you have one of those saves where hardly any kids come by to trick or treat on Spooky Day. :)

More random holiday traditions. https://littlemssam.tumblr.com/post/177488377483/random-holiday-traditions-seasons-dlc-just-a

edit: Some of these require DLC. You can still download this without the DLC as there is a folder with the files separated out along with an 'all in one' file.

And some more holiday traditions over on MTS: http://www.modthesims.info/download.php?t=617364

These two mods have been updated: https://littlemssam.tumblr.com/post/177488377483/random-holiday-traditions-seasons-dlc-just-a

The icons mod has more added along with compatibility with the religious icons mod from MTS (I think it was linked earlier. There are added traditions in the dlc mod.

While I love the idea of more holiday icons, I am missing a mod that lets me pick and choose which ones to install. Personally I find 300+ icons overwhelming, and would prefer 10-15 that I would actually use and have ideas for instead. I have searched but not found, does anyone know if there is any mod that will allow that, or a way I can do it myself? Or for that matter, make the icons entirely by myself. I haven't been able to find any tutorial on the issue at all which is frustrating.
