  • Ways to celebrate Children's Day

1. The Origin of Children's Day

Children’s Day was established to commemorate and care for children. Its origin dates back to August 1925, after the end of World War I, when many children were left orphaned by the war. To show sympathy and compassion for these children and to reflect on the impact of war on humanity, representatives from around the world adopted the Geneva Declaration of the Rights of the Child. This declaration called on governments to pay attention to children's rights and provide appropriate protection and care. Over the following decades, many countries began to hold their own Children’s Day celebrations to honor the special status and contributions of children.

2. Ways to Celebrate Children's Day

Different countries have their own ways of celebrating. In Taiwan, Children’s Day is celebrated by giving gifts or taking children out for fun activities. We can also organize fun events on Children’s Day to help children feel the festive atmosphere.

Family Gatherings: Consider going out to try new cuisines or cooking together at home. Adding cute decorations to the meal or home can enhance the festive mood. This also provides an opportunity for family bonding and creating wonderful memories.

Hosting a Small Party: Invite your child’s friends or family members for a gathering to enjoy the holiday. Simple activities such as games, hands-on crafts, or talent shows can be organized to ensure everyone has a fun and lively time.

Artistic Creations: Engage in painting, crafts, and other artistic activities with your child. Give them enough space to express their creativity. Displaying their artwork in a prominent place at home can give them a sense of accomplishment.

Outdoor Activities: If weather permits, consider taking your child outside to enjoy nature. Activities like picnicking, walking, biking, hiking, or visiting an amusement park can provide a joyful experience.

Cultural Experiences: Visit museums, science centers, zoos, or art exhibitions with your child. These outings offer a break from the usual routine, combining learning with fun and celebration, allowing children to gain new knowledge while enjoying the holiday.
