Children's Day

Although it appears on Western calendars, International Children's Day is not a holiday celebrated by most Americans. In other parts of the world - notably China - it is a very important day. Children's Day evolved from the 1925 "World Conference for the Well Being of Children." Held in Geneva, Switzerland, and attended by representatives from 54 countries, the conference passed the "Geneva Declaration Protecting Children." The proclamation focused on poverty, prevention of child labor, education and other issues related to the welfare of children around the world.


After the conference, various governments around the world designated a day, different in each country, as Children's Day, to encourage and bring joy to children as well as to draw the attention of society to children's issues. Since about 1949, Children's Day has been a very popular holiday in China. On that day, children hold performances and sing and dance, often dressed in their best clothes and wearing makeup. Even in orphanages, the children put on complex shows. Family and teachers bestow special presents and treats on the children.
