In 1925 everything happened. The conference addressed the issue of the well-being of the children of Geneva. During the conference, it was decided to set the date of the special day.
There are several versions as to who exactly invented such a holiday. According to some reports, the World Children's Day began to be celebrated after the Chinese consul, having gathered homeless orphans from China, arranged for them a merry holiday-festival of dragon boats. The holiday took place inSan Francisco. They say that everything was organized on June 1st. And on this day, just the same conference was held in Geneva.
There is also another version of creating a holiday. And the story is connected with the Second World War. After the war, many children were left orphans. The children, left without parental care, a roof over their heads, were sick and starving. Infant mortality has risen.
In 1949, at the Paris conference, a slogan was heard calling for the struggle for the happiness of children, in whom the future of all mankind. Exactly one year later, the first holiday was organized - International Children's Day. Since then, it has been held every year.
Features of the children's holiday
Very interesting fact - the celebration of Children's Day was supported by many socialist countries. For example, in the USSR, it was decided that the summer holidays for children begin on June 1. On this day trips to cinemas, excursions, competitions and relay races were organized. The main participants of the festival are, of course, children. But parents are also actively involved.
International Children's Day has its own unique flag, which is simply impossible to confuse with any other. Against a background of green around the globe are children's multi-colored figurines. Each element depicted on the flag is symbolic. Green color implies harmony and prosperity, purity and fertility. The globe is a common home. Human figurines are children of the Earth.
