Happy International Boys Day to all of our precious and gorgeous boys: you're awesome and we love you... This is an annual celebration on the 16th of May each year. International Boys Day was created to focus attention on boys’ wellbeing, education, mental health, development, and the challenges that boys face globally.
Check out the website, which has great suggestions for activities to do with the boys in your life, posters to celebrate Boys Day, and a bunch of other resources:

Boys Day (as it's colloquially known) or International Day of the Boy Child (as it's formally known) was founded by Jerome Teelucksingh from Trinidad and Tobago, with the inaugural observance held on 16 May 2018.
Similar to International Men's Day (which was first observed on 19 November 1999), International Boys Day is not officially recognised by the United Nations, but it is increasingly being marked internationally by an ever-expanding number of groups and non-profits and individuals and businesses and governments.
The United Nations calendar has 15 days of observance for girls and women, according to The Nuzzo Letter. But none for boys and men:
Make the 16th of May a fun and worthy celebration of our precious boys.
