The Children's Defense Day is celebrated on the first day of June. This holiday is a very popular one in all Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) countries.

School children like this holiday the best as it's the first day of long summer vacation. School children may go outside cities, close to nature, go to a seaside and resorts and defend themselves against annoying teachers in such a way!

June, 1 is one of the oldest international holidays. Decision on celebrating this day was accepted during the special session of the International Women Democratic Federation in November 1949.

The first celebration of the International Children's Day was held on June, 01 1950. U.N.O. supported this initiative and announced defense of child's life, health and rights as one of the priorities of its activity.

Modernghana.com congratulates all our readers who have children, happy International Children's Day.
