英文:The World Conference for the Well-being of Children in Geneva, Switzerland proclaimed June 1 to be International Children's Day in1925. 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 (USA) gathered a number of Chinese orphans to celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival in 1925, which happened to be on June 1 that year.
汉语翻译:1925年的时候,瑞士日内瓦国际会议上将6月1日设为“国际儿童节”。为什么是6月1日这个日子呢?事实上并没有一个相对准确的答案。一种说法认为:由于1925年,位于美国旧金山的中国总领事将一群中国孤儿召集在一起庆祝端午节,而当天正好是6月1日。
英文:The holiday is celebrated on 1 June each year. It is usually marked with speeches on children's rights and wellbeing, children TV programs, parties, various actions involving or dedicated to children, families going out, etc.
汉语翻译:每年的6.1儿童节,会以发表关于儿童权利、福利的演说,播放儿童电视节目、举办各种派对、活动,举家出游等方式来进行庆祝。
