🇨🇳 China Post – 2010 Stamp Issues (General)

In 2010, China Post issued a full program of commemorative and special stamps, but none of the standard national issues that year are officially themed specifically around children as a main subject in the official catalogue listings.

The 2010 regular stamp issues included (among others):

• 2010-1: Year of the Tiger (Lunar New Year)
• 2010-3: Shanghai 2010 Expo Park
• 2010-9: Stories of Idioms (II)
• 2010-12: Wen Yanbo Gets the Ball from a Tree Hole (this has children depicted playing, but it’s not categorized as a children-theme special set)
  …and many more commemorative subjects like opera, cultural festivals, environment, calligraphy, and infrastructure.

So strictly by official China Post catalog standards, there is no special “Children” thematic set listed under 2010 in the major PRC national stamp catalogue.

❓ Why Some Sellers Call Something “Children”

• Some commercial stamp dealers may label a souvenir sheet or miscellaneous issues as “Children” in their shop listings (often due to design elements) — but these titles are not official China Post designations in the national catalogue.
• The only close item among the 2010 issues that features children playing is the Wen Yanbo — Get the Ball from Tree Hole set (2010-12), which actually commemorates a famous story from Chinese culture with children playing — but this is part of the regular philatelic program, not a standalone children-themed special.

🧾 Related “Kid / Youth” Stamp Types (context)

• China has issued children-related stamps in other years, like classic series for International Children’s Day or sets where children design the artwork — but not officially in 2010 as a China Post special issue.
