Every year on the fourth Thursday in April, National Take Our Daughters and Sons to Work Day encourages parents to bring their children to work. Take Our Daughters to Work Day was founded in the summer of 1992 in New York City by the Ms. Foundation for Women and its president, Marie C. Wilson, the Women's Foundation treasurer, Daren Ball, and foundation founder Gloria Steinem.

This annual event is a one-day educational program in the United States and Canada in which parents bring their children to work with them. The day is intended to introduce children to the world of work. It encourages children to consider the various roles required to run a business or build a project. While spending the day with mom or dad, they may develop an interest in engineering, accounting, or art. Perhaps a child's natural proclivity for order will lead them to a career in logistics someday.

Take Our Daughters to Work Day was "created to help show girls that being smart was something to be proud of, not something to hide, and that their ideas could be heard and had value," according to the National Women's History Museum. "By providing girls with real-life adult role models in various professions, the program sought to show girls that gender was not a prohibitive factor to their desired profession."

In 2003, the name was officially changed to reflect the inclusion of boys.

The Take Our Daughters to Work Foundation, established in 1993, was renamed the Take Our Daughters and Sons to Work Day Foundation a decade later. Today, the goal of the day, according to the foundation, is to encourage "girls and boys across the country to dream without gender limitations and to think imaginatively about their family, work and community lives.

Children are perceptive and inquisitive. Bring them into your workplace so they can learn about different careers and skills. Allow them to set goals and chart a course to their ideal career.
