Childrens day
It all started in 1925. A meeting was held in Geneva, Switzerland. It was called the World Conference for the Well-being of Children. It was decided at that conference that a day should be set aside each year to celebrate children. The people at this meeting wanted the people of the world to stop and think about the children of the world. It was their hope that by taking the time to think about the children, they would take better care of their children. After all, children are a country's hope for the future. Children's Day is celebrated on May 27 in Nigeria. It is a public holiday for Primary and Secondary school children. Depending on the state, a handful of children are selected to represent their schools in a march past for state officials.
