June 1 — International Children's Day

History of the Holiday

The first International Children's Day was celebrated in 1950, but its origins go back to 1924, when an international conference raised concerns about child welfare. In 1949, the Women's International Democratic Federation proposed the idea of an annual day for children. The initiative was later supported by the United Nations, making the protection of children's rights a global priority.

How It's Celebrated in Turkmenistan and Regions

In Turkmenistan, this day is celebrated widely and with great warmth. The country places strong emphasis on creating safe, supportive environments for children's education, creativity, and overall development. Across the nation, including velayat centers and local communities, concerts, cultural events, competitions, and sports activities are held.

In the Lebap region, the day is marked with festive and engaging events for children and families. These activities aim to create joyful memories while reinforcing the importance of upholding children's rights and ensuring their well-being.

A Message to Parents

Every child's future begins at home. Parents are role models whose actions shape their children's behavior and outlook on life. Raising children in a loving, respectful, and morally sound environment is the foundation for a better society.

Caring for children means investing in the future

A happy, educated, and healthy generation is the key to any nation's prosperity. The love, attention, and care we give our children today will shape the success and strength of our society tomorrow.
