In India, Children's Day is observed annually on November 14th to commemorate the birth of Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, the nation's first Prime Minister. Nehru had a deep affection for children, who affectionately referred to him as 'Chacha Nehru.' This day is dedicated to children, highlighting their rights, care, and education. Nehru believed that children represent the future of the country and should be nurtured with love, care, and a proper education to become responsible citizens. He consistently stressed that a nation's progress is linked to how it nurtures and educates its youth. Schools across the country celebrate Children's Day with great enthusiasm, organizing various activities such as songs, dances, sports, fancy dress, and drawing competitions to make children feel special and joyful. Teachers and parents also join in by arranging fun activities and giving gifts or sweets to the children. This day serves as a reminder that every child deserves love, education, and a safe environment to reach their full potential. It is also an opportunity to raise awareness about child rights and the importance of child welfare. Let us honor Children's Day by committing to creating a world where every child is healthy, educated, and happy, as they are the bright future of India. "Children are like buds in a garden and should be carefully and lovingly nurtured, as they are the future of the nation." – Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru
