Children's Day
Children's Day is a holiday in many countries around the world; mainly the holiday's purpose is to simply honor children.
International Children's Day
The International Children's Day (ICD) is celebrated in numerous countries, usually (but not always) on June 1 each year.
The ICD had its origin in the World Conference for the Wellbeing of Children in Geneva, Switzerland in 1925. It is not clear as to why June 1 was chosen as the ICD: one theory has it that the Chinese consul-general in San Francisco (USA) gathered a number of Chinese orphans to celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival in 1925, which happened to be on June 1 that year, and also coincided with the conference in Geneva.
June 1 has since been observed as the ICD by numerous countries, especially by Communist countries; in the Western world the ICD is usually celebrated on other days of the year (if at all)， and there is often little public awareness about these celebrations. (See the section on Germany below for further discussions.) Consequently there is sometimes a misperception that June 1 as the ICD was a Communist invention. Nonetheless, in recent years even some groups within the United States started observing the ICD on June 1.
Universal Children's Day
Since December 14, 1954, United Nations and UNESCO observes 20 November as the Universal Children's Day.
Albania
Children's Day is celebrated on June 1 in Albania too.
Germany
During the Cold War, the Children's Day (Kindertag) was handled quite differently in the two states. The date was different (GDR: June 1, FRG: September 20)， the name was slightly different (GDR: “International Children's Day” (“Internationaler Kindertag”)， FRG: “World Children's Day” (“Weltkindertag”))， and most notably: the customs were different.
In the GDR, the holiday was introduced in 1950, and was from then on a yearly highlight for the children. On this day of the year, one typically received congratulations and presents from one's parents and did special activities in school, such as field trips and the like. In the FRG, Children's Day did not have such meaning to the children, and was even mostly unknown to many people.
Since the affiliation in 1990, the date and name used in the FRG have become the official ones for the former GDR as well. This however was not accepted by large parts of the former GDR population, so that still many parents celebrate with their kids on the former date, June 1, and even Children's Day public events take place on the old date.
Hong Kong
The Children's Day is celebrated on April 4 each year in Hong Kong.
India

In Paraguay, Children's Day is celebrated on August 16, day of the infamous Battle of Acosta ?u, where 20,000 men of the Brazilian Army crushed a Paraguayan battalion made up of 3,500 children ages six to fifteen - even though Paraguay had been already completely defeated (see more in War of the Triple Alliance)。 It's a national holiday, used to remember the atrocities of the Paraguayan War.
People's Republic of China
In the People's Republic of China, Children's Day is celebrated on June 1 and is formally known as “the June 1st International Children's Day”. When the People's Republic of China was first established in 1949, the State Council (Cabinet) designated a half-day holiday for all primary schools on June 1st. This was later made into a full day's break in 1956 with The Announcement by the State Council to make June 1st Children's Day a One-Day Holiday. Schools usually hold activities such as camping trips or free movies on Children's Day to allow students to have fun, and children of civil servants might also receive small gifts from the government. Entrance ceremonies of the Young Pioneers of China (similar to boy scouts in the West) are usually held on June 1st as well. However on 6/1/08 the day was made even more memorable, as many people remembered the children who died in the earthquake just a few weeks ago.

Turkey
April 23 is the “National Sovereignty and Children's Day” (tr:23 Nisan Ulusal Egemenlik ve ?ocuk Bayram?) in Turkey.
The date commemorates the opening of Turkish National Assembly in 1920 during the Turkish Independence War. The designation of Children's Day came in 1929 upon the recommendation of the Institution of Children's Protection. Since 1986 the Turkish government organizes an international children's festival on April 23.
On April 23 of every year, children in Turkey celebrate this “Sovereignty and Children's Day” as a national holiday, and is celebrated by citizens troughout the country during ceremonies preceding the day.
Among the activities on this day, children from all around Turkey gather in the capital city, Ankara, and they replace the selected members of the Grand National Assembly. They have an elected president and prime minister and they govern Turkey for one day in order to emphasize the importance of the children in the society. In many places governmental agencies leave the authority to children symbolically for the day.
Traditionally since 1986, children come to Turkey to represent their country of origin to children of the world with artistic performances. They're housed in Turkish homes and can meet with Turkish children. This event is organized by the Turkish Radio and Television Corporation. The groups of foreign children also participate in the special session held at the Grand National Assembly.
Turkish people hope these children will remember the day for their lives and will contribute to a bound with other cultures. The internationalization is thus aimed toward Turkey's principle of, “peace at home, peace in the world”, and “Sovereignty belongs unconditionally to the people”.
