12 September - Grandparents Day in United States
It is said that the origin of the festival comes from the recognition of the elders and their importance.
In 1973, Senator Jennings Randolph introduced a motion to declare Grandparents' Day a national holiday. Five years later, in 1978, Congress passed a law that established the first Sunday after Labor Day as National Grandparents' Day.
