Çocuk Bayramınız Kutlu Olsun – Children’s Day
1Saturday 23 April, 2016 by Uncle Spike
On April 23, 1929, upon Atatürk’s proposal, the Turkish Grand National Assembly decreed April 23 as a national holiday dedicated to children. Thus Turkey became the first country in the world that celebrates an official Children’s Day. Today this national holiday is celebrated in Turkey with children from all over the world in a spirit of peace and harmony.
