Global Day of Parents

06 June 2024

Mrs SALLY QUINNELL (Camden)—June 1 every year is designated as Global Day of Parents. This year's theme is the promise of playful parenting. Throughout June, United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) and its partners will advocate for expert advice and support for parents, based on engaging activities for the entire family. In recognition of the increasing prevalence of online play, they will also provide parents with comprehensive guides and detailed explanations to ensure their children's online experiences are both safe and positive. From nurturing childhood dreams to offering unwavering support through life's challenges, parents play an indispensable role in our lives. Today, we recognize and appreciate their immeasurable contributions to families and society. Let us celebrate and express gratitude for the endless love and devotion of parents, recognizing their profound impact on shaping a better world for all.
