Did you know that while many countries celebrate Children's Day on October 12th, like Brazil, there's a whole spectrum of dates and traditions? Let's explore some fascinating facts:

• A United Nations Affair: The UN recognizes November 20th as Universal Children's Day, commemorating the adoption of the Declaration of the Rights of the Child.

  
  

• Date Diversity: From June 1st (recognized as International Children's Day) to the last Sunday of October in New Zealand, each country has its unique way of celebrating.

• Cultural Celebrations:

  • Japan: Celebrated twice a year, once for boys (May 5th) with samurai displays and once for girls (March 3rd) with doll exhibitions.
    

  • Korea: Children's Day is a national holiday, with parades, performances, and special events.
    

  • Mexico: Celebrated on April 30th, often involving piñatas and traditional games.
