61儿童节的由来用英语

  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.
