World Day Against Child Labour

What is World Day Against Child Labour?

World Day Against Child Labour is a day where people worldwide come together to discuss the importance of helping children, reminding us that every child deserves to grow up happy and safe without having to work too hard. Child Labour is when children work when they should be playing and going to school, restricting them from learning, playing and being with their families.  


When is World Day Against Child Labour?

Wednesday, June 12 


Activities:

  • Art for Advocacy: Provide art materials for children to create posters or artwork that promote awareness about child Labor and the rights of children. Encourage them to use images and messages to convey the importance of education, play, and a safe environment for all children.
  • Story Time with a Message: Read books that address the theme of child labour and the importance of education. Choose books such as "Iqbal" by Francesco D'Adamo or "The Carpet Boy's Gift" by Pegi Deitz Shea.
  • Group time: Have a class discussion what is child labour, why is it bad and the importance of education.
  • Storytelling Circle Time: Sit in a circle with the children and take turns telling short stories or sharing personal experiences related to kindness, fairness, and helping others.
