The ICD had its origin in the World Conference for the Wellbeing of Children in Geneva, Switzerland in 1925. It is not clear as to why June 1 was chosen as the ICD.

The World Conference for the Well-being of Children in Geneva, Switzerland proclaimed June 1 to be International Children"s Day in1925. It is not clear as to why June 1 was chosen as the International Children"s Day: one theory has it that the Chinese consul-general in San Francisco (USA) gathered a number of Chinese orphans to celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival in 1925, which happened to be on June 1 that year.
1925年，在瑞士日内瓦召开的关于儿童福利的国际会议上提出将6月1日设为“国际儿童节”。至于为什么是6月1日这个日子并没有一个准确的答案。一种说法认为是由于1925年，位于美国旧金山的*总领事将一群*孤儿召集在一起庆祝端午节，而当天正好是6月1日。
The holiday is celebrated on 1 June each year. It is usually marked with speeches on children"s rights and wellbeing, children TV programs, parties, various actions involving or dedicated to children, families going out, etc.
每年的6.1儿童节，人们通常会以发表关于儿童权利、福利的演说，播放儿童电视节目、举办各种派对、活动，举家出游等方式庆祝。
在此以前，世界上的许多国家就有儿童节。1925年，国际儿童幸福促进会倡议建立儿童纪念日，英国、美国、日本等国积极响应，先后建立了自己国家的儿童节，英国规定每年的7月14日为儿童节，美国规定5月1日为儿童节。日本的儿童节很特殊，分男女儿童节，男儿童节5月5日、女儿童节3月3日。我国在1931年也曾经规定4月4日为中国儿童节。
自从1949年确立6月1日为国际儿童节以后，世界各国纷纷废除原来的儿童节，而统一为六一国际儿童节。我国中央政府1949年12月宣布：以六一国际儿童节代替原来的四四儿童节，并规定少年儿童放假一天。
