Holy Innocents Day
Every year on December 28th, Holy Innocents Day is observed. As told in Matthew 2:16: The day commemorates the execution of the innocent, male children in Bethlehem.
King Herod's order was found in Matthew's account of the king's reaction to the fulfillment of the Old Testament prophecy. Also known as the Feast of the Holy Innocents (and referred to as Childermas). This day is observed in both Western churches and Eastern churches on December 28th and Eastern churches on December 29th. By the Catholic Church, these children are regarded martyrs, Saints of God.

On this day, it is normal to give the youngest child in the household the right to rule the day. The youngest is in charge of everything from what to eat, where to go, and what to do. Here's what to eat, where to go, and what to do. It is a day for children in Mexico to perform practical jokes and pranks on their elders. To post on social media, use the hashtag #HolyInnocentsDay.

Herod was born about 74 years B.C. and the Romans crowned him King of Judea in 37 B.C.
The King of the Jews was born in Bethlehem, posing a threat to his reign and the fulfillment of an Old Testament prophecy. Herod ordered the execution of all the male children. The feast has been held since before the fifth century, although scholars debate the precise date and even question whether the massacre took place.
