The UN resolution called for each country to have their own version and date for "Universal Child Day"
The content about International Child Day is wrong. There are no citations because it doesn't exist in the UN.
Turkey section claims that "The importance of April 23th is recognised by UNESCO since 1992, as the International Children's Day." I am Turkish and want this to be true but couldn't find any reliable source. Also as noted in UNESCO's site [1] and wikipedia article 23 AprilisWorld Book and Copyright Day. We should find the source or delete the information. Book day is first celebrated in 1995 so may be they changed their mind at some point. þħɥʂıɕıʄʈʝɘɖı 18:05, 23 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I just tried to tighten up the language, but I grabbed the "happiness and personality" information from the Kodomo no hi article to better tie the two together. --Lloegr-Cymru£ ¥ 02:06, 5 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
It mentions China and the Dragon Boat Festival in the section about International Children's Day, but it might be useful to specify that China currently celebrates ICD, instead of just saying that "June 1 has since been observed as the ICD by numerous countries, especially by Communist countries".
Although the Japanese Children's Day is no longer Boy's Day, May 5 is still often referred to as "Tangonosekku" (端午の節句) in the way that Hina Matsuri can be referred to as "Momo no Sekku" (桃の節句). They are more like "other names" for the day. The section currently makes it sound as if the name "Tango no sekku" has been replaced and discarded.
As a side note, it seems kind of strange how gifts are not mentioned. At least in Japan and Taiwan, most children expect at least small presents for Children's Day, just as how most kids in N. America expect presents for Christmas... Terukiyo 12:18, 5 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
In Chile Children's Day is celebrated the FIRST sunday of august.
Is there a particular reason why Slovakia and South Korea are not arranged in alphabetical order?--Bliz (talk) 15:48, 13 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Is this correct?
South Korea? It is celebrated in the Republic of Korea on June 5, but the Republic of Korea is not on the list. 211.195.53.91 (talk) 03:56, 3 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Obligatory Joke:
No wonder that Children's Day in the world's second most populous nation falls exactly 9 months after Valentine's Day. Lucifer (Talk) 17:11, 14 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
