Every year, June 1st of the Gregorian calendar is known as International Children’s Day or Children’s Day. On this day, children usually receive gifts and well wishes from their families, teachers, and participate in fun activities.

In addition, children are taken by their families to go shopping for new clothes, buy toys, and go out to play. For adults, this is a time for them to express their love for their grandchildren, such as sending well wishes, buying gifts, organizing a meaningful party, etc.

The history of International Children’s Day

On the morning of June 1st, 1942, German Nazis surrounded the village of Lidice in Czechoslovakia, and they captured 173 men, 196 women, and children. Here, they massacred 66 people and put 104 children in concentration camps, 88 of whom died in gas chambers, and 9 others were sent to work for the Nazis. There was no one left in Lidice.
Two years later, on June 10th, 1944, the Nazis surrounded the town of Oradour-sur-Glane in France, and they gathered 400 people in a church, including many women and over 100 children. They set fire to the church and caused a tragic scene.
To commemorate the hundreds of innocent children who were brutally killed by the Nazi Germans, in 1949, the International Democratic Women’s Union decided to make June 1st every year International Children’s Day, demanding that governments take responsibility for the lives of children, reduce military budgets to increase education budgets, and protect and care for adolescents and children. Since 1950, June 1st has become the day for children.
