How did Children's Day come about?

On June 10, 1942, German fascists shot and killed more than 140 male citizens over the age of 16 and all babies in the Czech village of Lidice, and took the women and 90 children to concentration camps. All the houses and buildings in the village were burned down. A good village was destroyed by the German fascists. After the end of World War II, the economy was in depression all over the world, and thousands of workers were unemployed and lived a life of hunger and cold. The situation of children was even worse. Some contracted infectious diseases and died in large numbers; others were forced to work as child laborers, suffering torture, and their lives and lives were not guaranteed.
In order to mourn the Lidice massacre and all the children who died in wars around the world, to oppose the killing and poisoning of children, and to protect the rights of children, the International Democratic Women's Federation held a board meeting in Moscow in November 1949. Representatives from various countries angrily exposed the crimes of imperialists and reactionaries in various countries in killing and poisoning children. In order to protect the right to survival, health care and education of children in all countries of the world and to improve the lives of children, the meeting decided to designate June 1st of each year as International Children's Day.
After the founding of New China, the State Council of the Central People's Government stipulated on December 23, 1949, to unify China's Children's Day with International Children's Day.
