When is Mother's Day? When is Father's Day?

Mother's Day is the second Sunday in May and Father's Day is the third Sunday in June.

As a festival to thank mothers, Mother's Day first appeared in ancient Greece and developed in the United States. 19 14, the us congress officially named the second Sunday in may as mother's day, and asked the president to issue a declaration calling on government officials to fly the national flag on all public buildings. Then, President Wilson told citizens all over the country to hang the national flag in their homes to show their love and respect for all American mothers. Since then, the president of the United States has issued a declaration with the same content every year. Since then, Mother's Day has been held in various countries.

At the end of the 20th century, with the international integration of China, Mother's Day became more and more popular in Chinese mainland, and more and more people began to accept the concept of Mother's Day. On the second Sunday of May every year, people in China and other countries in the world express their gratitude to their mothers in various ways.

Father's Day, as its name implies, is a holiday to thank your father. It started in the early 20th century and originated in America. The world's first Father's Day 19 10 was born in the United States, initiated by Mrs. Bruce Dodd, who lives in Spokane, Washington, USA.

1924, US President Coolidge expressed support for the proposal to establish a national Father's Day. 1966, President Johnson signed a presidential proclamation declaring the third Sunday in June of that year as American Father's Day. 1972, US President Nixon signed an official document, which designated the third Sunday in June as the National Father's Day and became a permanent memorial day in the United States.
