儿童节为什么是 children's Day？
在很多场合下，kid=child 两者可以互换。它们都指“儿童，小朋友，未成年人”，在家庭关系中，都指“孩子”。
- child：是 children 的单数形式，法律意义上，指的是未满18岁的未成年人，生物学上是指青春期前的孩子。
- kid：是对小孩子称呼的俚语，几乎不会在任何学术或者专业的领域使用。所以，作为一个正式场合使用的节日名称，当然是 Children's Day 啦。
两者的本质区别在于：kid属于非正式（informal）的口语表达，child是正式的(formal)书面表达。
所以，当选择词语来命名一个国际性节日——“六一国际儿童节”时，自然就选择了更为正式的children（child的复数）了。
kid——说到kid，看美剧时我们会发现，他们特喜欢用kid称呼比自己小的人，即使对方已经成年。此时，kid就相当于son“孩子，年轻人”，大多是长辈对晚辈亲切的称谓，有种语重心长，殷切鼓励的感觉。
Buck up, kid! It's not the end of the game.
年轻人，振作起来！人生还长着呢。
child——它经常用在文学作品，官方文书等正式场合，比如前南非总统Mandela曼德拉的名言：The true character of a society is revealed in how it treats its children.“一个社会的本质，看它对待孩童的方式就可以窥其全貌。”
但在口语中，child也有一层比喻义，形容大人“像孩子一样幼稚，不懂事”（贬义）。
He's such a child if he doesn't get his own way.
如果不按他的想法来，他就会像个孩子一样胡闹。
儿童节的由来
The establishment of international children's day, and take place in a world war ii massacre of a famous relevant，In June 1942, the German fascist shot for the Czech republic's village men over the age of 16 more than 140 citizens and all children, and the women and 90 children and to concentration camps.

国际儿童节的设立，和发生在二战期间一次著名的屠杀有关。1942年6月，德国法西斯枪杀了捷克利迪策村16岁以上的男性公民140余人和全部婴儿，并把妇女和90名儿童押往集中营。村里的房舍、建筑物均被烧毁，好端端的一个村庄就这样被德国法西斯给毁了。第二次世界大战结束后，世界各地经济萧条，成千上万的工人失业，过着饥寒交迫的生活。儿童的处境更糟，有的得了传染病，一批批地死去；有的则被迫当童工，受尽折磨，生活和生命得不到保障。为了悼念利迪策村和全世界所有在法西斯侵略战争中死难的儿童，1949年11月，国际民主妇女联合会在莫斯科举行理事会议。为了保障世界各国儿童的生存权、保健权和受教育权，为了改善儿童的生活，会议决定以利迪策村屠杀时的6月的第一天为国际儿童节。当时的很多国家表示赞同，特别是社会主义国家。
