​National Family Day is declared every Sunday in the first week of May every year. It was created to recognise the importance of the role of a strong and harmonious family institution in the formation of a resilient society.

A happy family, supporting the education, well-being, and safety of family members, contributes to a healthy emotional, mental and physical well-being and a productive workforce. Core Family Values fostered in the family can form the foundation for a stable and prosperous society. Family recreation is among the activities that can strengthen family relationships and ties.
