Mother's day is celebrated in Georgia on March 3-the holiday is intended to remind the public of the exclusive role of mothers and the importance of caring for them. This day is an official holiday in the country.

The family holiday was established in the country on the initiative of the first President of Georgia, Zviad Gamsakhurdia, and in 1991 the decision to celebrate it was legalized by the Supreme Council of Georgia.

Curiously, it was initially assumed that mother's Day should replace the international women's day in Georgia, which is celebrated annually on March 8. However, both holidays are still celebrated in the country. By the way, unfortunately, there is no official "men's" day in the Georgian holiday calendar.

The purpose of mother's Day is to support the tradition of valuing and protecting mothers and to strengthen family foundations.

It is noteworthy that in Russia, mother's Day is usually celebrated on the last Sunday of November, and in most Western countries - on the second Sunday of may.
