六一至，祝孩子們天真爛漫童心不改，紅光滿面童顏大悅，活蹦亂跳返老還童，童心蕩漾童趣無限!

　　兒童節第一種說法：

　　The International Children’s Day had its origin in Turkey in 1920 and later in the World Conference in Geneva, Switzerland,which 54 representatives from different countries gathered together to convene the first World Conference for the Wellbeing of Children in 1925.

　　It is not clear as to why June 1 was chosen as the International Children’s Day: one theory has it that the Chinese consul-general in San Francisco 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.

　　最早過六一兒童節的國家是土耳其，他們在1920年就開始了。1925年，在日內瓦國際會議上，瑞士等52個國家共同召開了主題為“讓孩子們更幸福全球會議。

　　之所以把6月1日作為國際兒童節，一種說法是1925年，中國駐美國的總領事曾在舊金山領著一些中國孤兒仔慶祝端午節。那一年的端午節剛好是6月1日，發生地時間與之前的日內瓦會議相符。

　　兒童節第二種說法：

　　Children, also known as June 1 International Children’s Day, the annual June 1, the world of children’s festivals. November 1949, the Women’s International Democratic Federation council meeting held in Moscow. China and other countries and representatives of countries and anger exposed the imperialist reactionaries kill and poison children. In order to protect the world’s children to survival, health and education, to improve the lives of children. The meeting decided in the annual June 1 International Children’s Day.

　　The International Children’s Day is celebrated in numerous countries, usually on June 1 each year.

　　1942年6月，德國法西斯黨衛軍包圍了現在捷克共和國的首都布拉格市附近的利迪策村，槍殺了16歲以上男性公民140多人，全部嬰兒和婦女被押往集中營，另外有90名兒童被押往波蘭的一個集中營(其中只有17人活到戰爭結束)。村里所有的房舍、建筑物均被燒毀或被鏟土機夷為平地。就這樣，一個好好的村莊被法西斯黨衛軍毀滅了。

　　為了悼念利迪策村和全世界所有在戰爭中死難的兒童，反對帝國主義戰爭販子虐殺、毒害兒童，保障兒童的權利，1949年11月在蘇聯首都莫斯科召開的國際民主婦女聯合會理事會通過一項決議，正式決定每年的6月1日為全世界兒童的節日，即六一國際兒童節。

　　目前世界上不少國家將6月1日定為兒童的節日，稱為國際兒童節。然而，在歐美國家，兒童節的日期各不相同，而且往往很少舉行社會公眾性的慶祝活動。

　　部分國家兒童節日期

　　中國：6月1日

　　In the People’s Republic of China, Children’s Day is celebrated on June 1 and is formally known as the June 1 International Children’s Day.When the People’s Republic of China was first established in 1949, the State Council designated a half-day holiday for all primary schools on June 1. This was later made into a full day’s break in 1956 with The announcement by the State Council to make June 1 Children’s Day a One-Day Holiday.

　　每年的6月1日，世界大多數國家都要舉辦各種形式的活動，來紀念這一節日。新中國成立后，中央人民政府政務院于1949年12月23日規定，將中國的兒童節與國際兒童節統一起來。
