關於六一兒童節的由來有兩種說法:

雙語趣味美文:六一兒童節的由來

  第一種說法:

Children, also known as "June 1 International Children's Day," the annual June 1, the world of children's festivals. November 1949, the Women's International Democratic Federation council meeting held in Moscow. China and other countries and representatives of countries and anger exposed the imperialist reactionaries kill and poison children. In order to protect the world's children to survival, health and education, to improve the lives of children. The meeting decided in the annual June 1 International Children's Day.

1942年6月,德國法西斯黨衛軍包圍了現在捷克共和國的首都布拉格市附近的利迪策村,槍殺了16歲以上男性公民140多人,全部嬰兒和婦女被押往集中營,另外有90名兒童被押往波蘭的一個集中營(其中只有17人活到戰爭結束)。村裏所有的房舍、建築物均被燒 毀或被鏟土機夷爲平地。就這樣,一個好好的村莊被法西斯黨衛軍毀滅了。爲了悼念利迪策村和全世界所有在戰爭中死難的兒童,反對帝國主義戰爭販子虐殺、毒害兒童,保障兒童的權利,1949年11月在蘇聯首都莫斯科召開的國際民主婦女聯合會理事會通過一項決議,正式決定每年的6月1日爲全世界兒童的節日,即"六一"國際兒童節。

The International Children's Day (ICD) is celebrated in numerous countries, usually (but not always) on June 1 each year.

目前世界上不少國家將6月1日定爲兒童的節日,稱爲"國際兒童節"。然而,在歐美國家,兒童節的日期各不相同,而且往往很少舉行社會公衆性的慶祝活動

  第二種說法:

The International Children's Day had its origin in Turkey in 1920 (April 23, 1920) and later in the World Conference in Geneva, Switzerland,which 54 representatives from different countries gathered together to convene the first "World Conference for the Wellbeing of Children" in 1925.

最早過六一兒童節的國家是土耳其,他們在1920年就開始了。1925年,在日內瓦國際會議上,瑞士等54個國家共同召開了主題爲“讓孩子們更幸福全球會議”。

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, and also coincided with the conference in Geneva.

之所以把6月1日作爲國際兒童節,一種說法是1925年,中國駐美國的總領事曾在舊金山領着一些中國孤兒慶祝端午節。那一年的端午節剛好是6月1日,發生的時間與之前的日內瓦會議相符。

目前世界上不少國家將6月1日定爲兒童的節日,稱爲"國際兒童節"。然而,在歐美國家,兒童節的日期各不相同,而且往往很少舉行社會公衆性的慶祝活動。
