World Population Day, celebrated on July 11, is a special day when people all around the world think about our planet's population. It began in 1989 when people realized that the number of people living on Earth was growing very fast. On this day, people learn why it's important to have a healthy balance in how many people are born and what resources we have, like food, water, and space. It helps us understand how every person is important and what we can do to take care of each other and our planet better.
How to celebrate World Population Day?
To celebrate World Population Day, you can start by learning about people from different countries. Watch videos or read books about their cultures, and maybe try cooking a dish from somewhere far away. You could draw a big world map, marking where you and your friends come from. Talk to your family about how to help the planet stay healthy for future people. Maybe plant a tree or start a small garden, showing care for the Earth. You could also share a card with a friend, telling them something cool you learned about the world or a new word in another language!
