Children's Day

A socialist holiday, observed with school events and the reminder that 30% of Lao children are stunted due to malnutrition. The day is both celebration and call to action, and the government uses it to promote child health and education.

Ertong Jie

National holiday for children under 14. Schools organize performances, parents take the day off, and amusement parks become battlegrounds of joy. Every Chinese adult remembers performing a group song in front of the whole school on this day and trying not to mess up the hand gestures.
