一年之中有兩個兒童節?

又到六一兒童節啦~大小盆友們，想好腫麼high了嗎？？其實呀，一年有兩個“兒童節”呢，分別是6月1的國際兒童節和11月20的國際兒童日。當然啦，對於童心未泯的孩紙們，天天都可以是兒童節~

國際兒童節

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.
1925年，在瑞士日內瓦召開的關於兒童福利的國際會議上提出將6月1日設爲“國際兒童節”。至於爲什麼是6月1日這個日子並沒有一個準確的答案。一種說法認爲是由於1925年，位於美國舊金山的中國總領事將一羣中國孤兒召集在一起慶祝端午節，而當天正好是6月1日。

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.
每年的6.1兒童節，人們通常會以發表關於兒童權利、福利的演說，播放兒童電視節目、舉辦各種派對、活動，舉家出遊等方式慶祝。

國際兒童日

Universal Children's Day takes place on November 20 annually. First proclaimed by the United Nations General Assembly in 1954, it was established to encourage all countries to institute a day, firstly to promote mutual exchange and understanding among children and secondly to initiate action to benefit and promote the welfare of the world's children. Universal Children's Day is preceded by International Men's Day on November 19 creating a 48 hour celebration of men and children respectively during which time the positive roles men play in children's lives are recognized.
國際兒童日是每年的11月20日，1954年的聯合國大會上，這個節日的提出是爲了推動所有國家都設立一個專門的日子來：首先，促進各國兒童之間的交流和溝通；其次，通過採取行動來提升各國兒童的福利。國際兒童日在國際男人日（11月19日）隨後的一天，在48小時的兒童節和男人日的慶祝中，男人在兒童生活中的重要意義得到認可。
