The origin of children's day on June 1

1In June, 942, German fascists shot and killed more than 40 male citizens over 0/6 years old in Tekeli Ditze Village 140 and all the babies, and took women and 90 children to concentration camps. Houses and buildings in the village were burned down, and a good village was destroyed by German fascists.

In order to mourn the children who died in the fascist war of aggression in Lidice village and all over the world, 19491KLOC-0/month, the International Democratic Women's Federation held a board meeting in Moscow, and China and representatives of various countries angrily exposed the crimes of killing and poisoning children by imperialists and reactionaries from various countries. In order to guarantee the right to life, health care and education of children all over the world, and to improve children's lives, the meeting decided to take June 1 day as International Children's Day every year.

Before that, many countries in the world had Children's Day. 1925, the International Association for the Promotion of Children's Happiness initiated the establishment of Children's Day. Britain, the United States, Japan and other countries responded positively and successively established their own children's days. The United Kingdom stipulates that July 14 is Children's Day every year, and the United States stipulates that May 1 day is Children's Day. Children's Day in Japan is very special, which is divided into boys' and girls' children's days, boys' children's day on May 5 and girls' children's day on March 3. In 193 1 year, China also stipulated April 4th as China Children's Day.

Since 1949 established June 1 day as International Children's Day, countries all over the world have abolished the original Children's Day and unified it as "June 1 International Children's Day". China's central government 19491February announced that the original "April 4th Children's Day" would be replaced by "June 1st International Children's Day", and children were required to have a seven-day holiday.

At present, many countries in the world have designated June 1 day as a children's festival, especially in socialist countries. In Europe and America, the dates of Children's Day are different, and public celebrations are rarely held.

Children's Day in Old China

Childhood in the smoke is inevitably painful and angry, but the suffering childhood is also bright and enthusiastic. The establishment of China Anti-Japanese Children's League made the children in the mountains have their own festival-Children's Day, but it was April 4th.

There are hundreds of thousands of anti-Japanese children's league members in the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei border region of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression and China. After the magnificent new-democratic revolution, the children's league members have become the backbone of socialist construction.

The old children's league members recalled that on Children's Day, as long as the Japanese didn't come to "mop up", all counties and districts would organize activities and hold conferences. Sometimes singing competitions are held, sometimes drills are organized, and children's groups in several villages are still struggling to see who sings well and drills neatly, and there are prizes if they win, usually pencils.

In order to improve the ability to deal with the enemy, military training is also an important part of the children's league. Summer camps were organized in the border areas, and the backbones of children's groups were gathered in the deep mountains for training. They learned how to shoot guns, stab people and lay mines, and they also conducted training, air defense exercises and fire prevention exercises.

In order to improve the anti-"mopping-up" ability, the Children's League also organized the "Charge Month" activity, where children were gathered every night, lived together, and had an emergency gathering in the middle of the night, backpacking and running across the forest.

Children's Day after the founding of New China

Since 1949, the People's Republic of China has officially designated June 1 day as the International Children's Day.

The way of folk celebration is to give toys and gifts to children, or to accompany children out for a big meal or play.
