International Children's Day Uluslararası Çocuk Günü
Türkiye observes June 1 as International Children's Day, in addition to April 23 (National Sovereignty and Children's Day). June 1 has been observed in many countries since at least the mid-20th century and is distinct from the UN's World Children's Day (November 20). Not an official public holiday but widely observed in Turkish schools and media.
