How do parents explain the origin of Children's Day?

You can say this -
June 1 International Children's Day, also known as Children's Day, is scheduled for June 1 every year. It originated from the end of World War II, when the economies around the world were in a depression and tens of millions of people were unemployed. At that time, the situation of our children was very, very bad. Many children contracted infectious diseases and died one after another. In order to commemorate the Lidice massacre and the children who died in wars all over the world, the International Women's Federation exposed the crimes of imperialists and reactionaries in killing and poisoning children at the board meeting held in Moscow in 1949, and decided to designate June 1 of each year as International Children's Day.
Children, do you know? The dates of Children's Day are actually different in different parts of the world. In Japan, Japan is the country that celebrates the most Children's Day in the world. They celebrate Children's Day three times a year: March 3rd is Girls' Day, May 5th is Boys' Day, and November 15th is Children's Day on July 53. In addition, South Korea's Children's Day is on May 5th of each year, Brazil's Children's Day is on August 15th, and Spain's Children's Day is on January 5th. In fact, this festival is a religious festival, which means the Day of the Magic King in Spanish.
Now the Children's Day in our country is on June 1st, and the whole country has a day off on this day. Well, the above is the origin of Children's Day!
