Universal Children’s Day • 20 November 2025
Written from a child’s point of view
Today feels special to me. I woke up thinking, “This day is really for kids like me.” It makes my heart feel a little warm, like something good is waiting for me.
It’s my day. It’s my right.
I have the right to feel safe when I walk, study, or play. I have the right to learn new things so I can grow. I have the right to smile, to ask questions, and to try again when I make mistakes. I have the right to be treated kindly, even on days when I’m not at my best.
Sometimes I feel shy. Sometimes I get confused. Sometimes I don’t know the right words to say. But I still hope people listen, because what I feel matters too.
Today reminds me that I’m important. I’m still small, but my future is big. And every kind word, every safe place, every little chance I get helps me become the person I’m trying to be.
It’s my day. It’s my right. And I’m thankful I get to say it out loud.
