Cultural Post 6

Turkey has a national holiday for children! National Sovereignty and Children's Day happens every year on April 23rd and was founded in 1920 to celebrate children, the future leaders of the world. During this celebration, children perform dances, recite poetry, and replace politicians in government to discuss and voice their concerns. Children from other countries are also sent to Turkey and hosted by Turkish families. These children from all over the world share their cultures and traditions with each other.
