    兒童節(jié)的由來(lái):
    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.
    兒童節(jié)是全世界許多國(guó)家的假日,此假日的目的完全是為兒童慶賀的。
    國(guó)際兒童節(jié)
    許多國(guó)家都慶祝國(guó)際兒童節(jié),通常(但并不全是)在每年6月1日。
    國(guó)際兒童節(jié)來(lái)源于1925年在瑞士日內(nèi)瓦舉行世界兒童福利大會(huì)。6月1日被選作國(guó)際兒童節(jié)的原因不得而知:一個(gè)說(shuō)法是中國(guó)駐舊金山總領(lǐng)事招集了一批中國(guó)孤兒在1925年慶祝端午節(jié),這個(gè)節(jié)日在那年恰好在6月1日,也正好巧遇日內(nèi)瓦會(huì)議。
    6月1日后來(lái)一直被眾多的國(guó)家慶祝,尤其是在共產(chǎn)黨的國(guó)家;在西方世界,國(guó)際兒童節(jié)通常在其它日子慶祝(如果從根本上說(shuō))。這些慶祝通常幾乎不會(huì)引起公眾注意。(請(qǐng)看下列進(jìn)一步討論的德國(guó)部分。)從而,有時(shí)侯有一種錯(cuò)誤理解,認(rèn)為國(guó)際兒童節(jié)是共產(chǎn)主義者的創(chuàng)造。雖然如此,在最近幾年,美國(guó)的一些團(tuán)體開始在6月1日慶祝國(guó)際兒童節(jié)。
