Mother's Day
Description:
The first Women’s Day was held at the initiative of the Christian Association in Porto Alegre on May 12, 1918.
In 1932, the President of the country Getúlio Vargas officially confirmed this date as a holiday.
Large families with three to four children are common in Brazil, so it’s not hard to imagine how cordial and important this day has become.
Today, this popular and respected holiday takes place, as a rule, in the family circle, but on the eve in preschool and school institutions, children and teachers diligently prepare festive performances and gifts for mothers.
The holiday is not ignored by various retail chains that attract buyers with large discounts and low prices set specifically for this event in order to please women of different generations.
