Each November 20, the world celebrates Universal Children's Day.
It's a day to appreciate children for just being themselves and to recognize them as important and valued members of society, now and in the future.
The day was first suggested in 1954 by the UN General Assembly, to encourage fraternity and understanding between children around the world.
Since then, the General Assembly has adopted two landmark documents - the Declaration of the Rights of the Child in 1959 and the Convention on the Rights of the Child in 1989.
They cover everything from a child's right to be free from exploitation, to the right to his or her own opinion, and the right to education, health care, and economic opportunity.
To mark the day, Google put up this image on its homepage - featuring children watching a medieval jester and his puppet.
