WISH U ALL A VERY HAPPY CHILDREN'S DAY

                                 WISH U ALL A VERY HAPPY CHILDREN'S DAY

 Children's Day And Its Significance

Children are adorable. They are like divine gifts that parents get from the almighty. Their eyes are full of innocence. They smile when they receive love and admiration, they cry when it is their first day at school away from their parents, they giggle when they mingle with their buddies, and they signify nothing but the pure and faithful love. They truly symbolise god.

       14th November is celebrated as children's day in all over India. 14th November is also the birthday of Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, the first prime minister of independent India. Childhood memories are sweetest of all. They can be savored for a lifetime. Children's Day celebration is fun for the little ones but it is important for the parents too. Every parent must understand the importance of the children's day. Parents should be well aware about the little desires of their angels.

Chacha Nehru's love for children

Do you know why Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru's birthday is celebrated as the children's day? Pandit Nehru was a great leader. He worked passionately for the welfare of children and youngsters soon after independence. He was keen about welfare, education, and development of children in India. He was fond of children and thus became popular as Chacha Nehru (Uncle Nehru) among his little admirers.

Nehru was very particular about the progress of the Indian youth. He wanted to create responsible citizens out of young boys and girls. Under his regime he established several educational institutions including All India Institute of Medical Sciences, Indian Institutes of Technology, and Indian Institutes of Management.

He included and highlighted the point in his five years plan that every child in India would get free and compulsory primary education. Over thousands of schools were built through out the villages of India when Nehru was in power. He also brought the scheme to distribute free meals and milk to school children in India to prevent malnutrition.
Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru himself was destiny's child. He struggled a lot for the welfare of India. It is believed that he admired two things a lot, red roses and children. His love and passion towards children is the reason why we celebrate Children's Day on his birthday.

Why do we celebrate Children's Day?

Children's Day celebration is the tribute to childhood. John Kennedy, 35th US president has quoted it rightly, 'Children are the world's most valuable resource and its best hope for the future.' We cannot hide the fact that many children in India are not getting basic privileges like education.
The values and disciplines learned as a child are responsible for the kind of adulthood one has. Thus childhood is special and should be celebrated. Children's Day is to remind all young and adults about children's right to enjoy their childhood without any boundaries and to be educated adult in the future. Children's Day is to revise the right methods of raising children.

Children's Day Celebration

20th November is Universal Children's Day. In India lots fun activities and programs are organized on the children's day. Children's Day is called as 'Bal Divas' in Hindi. On this particular day government, NGOs (non government organisations), schools, and some private bodies conduct competitions and events for children. Various cultural programs are organized through out the schools. Special television programs for children are broadcasted on 14th November.

Parents too are eager about children's day. Some parents buy gifts for their sons and daughters. Some parents give greeting cards to their children to express their wishes on this special day. As parents we should not let this day pass as other ordinary day. It is our duty to make children's day special for our child.

You may take your child to visit some NGO or children's home on this day. You can imbibe some precious values in him though generous acts. Your child can give away some of his belongings to other poor children. In such a way he will get to know the real significance of this day. Make every 14th November special for your child. After all, 'Children will not remember you for the material things you provide them but for the feeling that you cherished them.'

2nd OCTOBER, 2013 "GANDHI JAYANTI"

                                           2nd OCTOBER, 2013 "GANDHI JAYANTI"

Our third important National Festival is the Gandhi Jayanti. It is celebrated on 2nd October every year. Mahatma Gandhi, the Father of our Nation was born on 2nd October 1869. His birth day is celebrated as National Festival all over the country. He led our nation in our fight for the freedom. Truth and Non-violence were his only tools in this fight against the British. His way of fighting was Satyagraha. He taught us to be honest and truthful.

Gandhiji was one of our great leaders who fought for the independence of the country and won it. He was a selfless leader and suffered many hardships for the freedom of our country. He was sent to jail many a times, but he suffered all this for the sake of the country. He believed in the social equality. He was deadly against untouchability. He called them Harijans or the children of God. He was loved by all his countrymen. Respectfully we call him Bapu or the Father of the Nation.

At national level Gandhi Jayanti is celebrated on 2^nd October every year at Raj Ghat or Gandhiji's Samadhi at New Delhi. Many people and our great leaders including the Rashtrapati and the Prime Minister pay homage to this great leader of the Nation. They place wreaths at the Samadhi and offerings of flowers. All religions prayer is held at the Samadhi in the morning. Charkha competition is held and Ram Dhun is sung.

In all State capitals and in towns and cities Gandhi Jayanti is celebrated as a National Festival. Gandhi Jayanti is also celebrated in schools and colleges. All our National Festivals are paid national holidays throughout the country. These festivals are celebrated with great reverence and pomp and show.
