Children’s Day was proposed to be celebrated on the world stage by Mr. V. Krishnan Menon, after which Children’s Day was first observed in October. On November 20, International Children’s Day was announced by the Joint General Assembly after it was celebrated and approved in all countries.
In order to prevent the violation of the rights of children, their rights were also announced by the United Nations and on the basis of that, the day of celebrating Children’s Day was accepted by the whole world.
There are many child laborers in the country of India , whereas in our country children below the age of 18 years are not allowed to do any kind of work. Children’s Day is necessary to keep the rights of children in front and to awaken everyone towards them. Due to this one day, it is important to take care of the government and other people. The solution of this problem is not easy from this one day but it is necessary to have this one day to focus everyone’s attention towards it.
Children are the future of the country, if they work at the age of reading and writing, they sweat the blood for livelihood, then the future of the country will become bleak.

Poem on Children’s Day (Bal Diwas Kavita Poem)
This moment comes every year
Dance with children
Giving tribute to uncle Nehru
This was the first Prime Minister of the country
Used to love children
Children are welcomed on every birth anniversary
Raw clay is the size of children
This is needed in true mold
Their life is not full of injustice
Vow you will not exploit child abuse
These are little girls
They are the blooming lotus of India
Teach them on children’s day
Life is priceless
You are the future of the country
You are the power of a powerful era
I want to convey this message through this poem that Children’s Day is not just a festival, we are duty bound to teach children their rights and duties on this day so that the future of the country can be bright. First of all, we have to convince ourselves of the importance of Children’s Day so that we do not exploit children and do not let them happen. Unless the children of the country are healthy and educated, then the imagination of a good country is meaningless.
