This special celebration also focuses on promoting children’s rights, happiness and development through cultural events, activities and festivities that bring families and communities together to show love and appreciation for the youngest members of society.

This year’s celebration is a whimsical adventure, themed around fairies and gnomes, filled with crafts, games, therapy dogs, free books and a unique twist – live reptiles!
