According to popular belief, we should expect a dry month in June, if it rains in its first two days. But, for him, the lack of rain is not so scary, because this is the first month of summer, time to rejoice, have fun, love, travel and celebrate many, many. But what holidays in June, we will now find out.
June 1 - World Children's Day
The first day of summer came, the holidays began rightfully in schools. The whole world celebrates World Children's Day. Having gone outside, you can see the faces of children and no less joyful parents overflowing with delight. It was not just called him “international”, because the fate of our younger “tomorrow” worries the entire population of the planet, even its most remote corners, therefore it (this day) serves as a reminder of human responsibility for the whole world and children.
The main reason for the appearance of this holiday in June was World War II, which took millions of children's lives and the lives of their parents, leaving many orphans. In 1950, World Children's Day was celebrated for the first time as an unceasing cry for adults that children, sorely needed love, care, understanding, upbringing and respect. Pay attention to your kids, give them an unforgettable day and life.
Another holiday, already professional, is celebrated on this day by the northern sailors of Russia. It is impossible to fully imagine the vastness of our homeland, and what hard work it is to protect the northern borders of our country.
June 6 - a holiday of Pushkin poetry
From school, we know that Pushkin is a storehouse of Russian literary language. This truly great poet, firmly entrenched in the history of not only Russian, but also world, and universal human culture. And this holiday in June is the day of all lovers and admirers of poetry and Russian literature. In all the languages of the world and in all countries of the planet they study his works and recognize this poet as great.
And since 2011, the President of the Russian Federation signed a decree on the annual celebration of the Russian Language Day on this date to preserve, support and develop the Russian language as a national language. And from some time the holiday was recognized as international and began to be celebrated at the UN.
June 12 - Day of Russia
It is considered to be the starting point of this holiday in Russia in June 1990, although only two years later it was recognized as state. The primary idea was to influence the development of statehood, based on constitutional federalism, equality and partnership. Of course, in addition to other public holidays, Russia’s Day is given greater importance, one might even say, a place of honor. That generation has grown up, which no longer remembers such a state as the USSR.
But the holiday did not take root right away. The overwhelming majority of the population simply did not understand its meaning, considered it far-fetched and just an excuse to rest for another day. Today this holiday is a symbol of the unity of the people and the bright future of our country.

In this regard, by decree of June 8, 1996, Russia adopted the Day of Remembrance and Sorrow.

Fishing is no longer a way to get food, but rather a lifestyle, a way to have a good time, even a hobby. And not just because there is a holiday in June around the world - the day of fishing. Even before our era, a man was engaged in fishing, however, instead of a fishing rod, he also had a harpoon and a hook.
In ancient Egypt, nets and nets appeared, and, just there, fishing is not a business, it is considered a sport and entertainment. By the way, in France in the Middle Ages this occupation was considered accessible only to high society. But over time, it developed, turning into a sphere of industry, coastal-marine fishing, and then oceanic, arose.
