Children's Day in India....

All children are born as princes and princesses. They are adorable and innocent. Children are the gifts to the parents by the Almighty. As parents it is our duty and responsibility to lead them in the right path of life. Children learn more from what you are than what you teach them.Let your children observe you, hear you and see you to follow their life.  Spent enough time with your kids to assure them they are capable of everything to make them successful human beings in life.

 In India November 14 is celebrated as 'Children's Day'. As a tribute to our first Prime Minister Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru also called 'Chacha Nehru' it is celebrated on his birthday. Jawaharlal Nehru gave emphasis to the kids all over India by giving love and affection to them to encourage their growth and welfare who are the bright future of the nation.
The first children's day was celebrated in 1954 in India and the idea of a universal Children's day suggested by V.K.Krishna Menon was accepted by the United Nations General Assembly. In 1959 October it started to celebrate universally.
