Feriado secular : Stems from the celebration of the Emperor Shōwa's birthday on April 29 every year during the Shōwa era. In 1989, following the ascension of the current Emperor Akihito to the Chrysanthemum Throne, the name of the holiday was changed from Birthday of the Emperor to Greenery Day .[1]Officially, as its name suggests, it is a day to commune with nature and to be thankful for blessings. The day was renamed to Greenery Day to acknowledge the controversial wartime emperor's love for plants without directly mentioning his name.[2] However, in practice it is seen as just another day that expands the Japanese Golden Week vacation.

Cartões/Flores : Haha no Hi em japonês A mais antiga comemoração do dia das mães é mitológica. Na Grécia antiga, a entrada da primavera era festejada em honra de Rhea, a Mãe dos Deuses. A Enciclopédia Britânica diz: Uma festividade derivada do costume de adorar a mãe, na antiga Grécia. A adoração formal da mãe, com cerimônias para Cibele ou Rhea, a Grande Mãe dos Deuses, era realizada nos idos de março, em toda a Ásia Menor. Nos Estados Unidos, as primeiras sugestões em prol da criação de uma data para a celebração das mães foi dada pela ativista Ann Maria Reeves Jarvis, que fundou em 1858 os Mothers Days Works Clubs com o objetivo de diminuir a mortalidade de crianças em famílias de trabalhadores. Jarvis organizou em 1865 o Mother's Friendship Days (dias de amizade para as mães) para melhorar as condições dos feridos na Guerra de Secessão que assolou os Estados Unidos no período. Em 1870 a escritora Julia Ward Howe (autora de O Hino de Batalha da República) publicou o manifesto Mother's Day Proclamation, pedindo paz e desarmamento depois da Guerra de Secessão.
