Belarus celebrates Mother's Day

Mother's Day is celebrated in most countries of the world, although its date varies from country to country. For example, Belarusians celebrate the holiday dedicated to mothers on October 14. This day was officially designated as Mother's Day in Belarus in 1996. Although Mother's Day is a working holiday, it is widely celebrated throughout the county. The day is marked with official ceremonies aimed at recognizing the significant role mothers play in Belarusian society. The celebration is designed to emphasize that motherhood and family are the priorities of the country's social policy.

Children congratulate their mothers on the holiday, giving them handmade gifts and greeting cards.
