Children of all ages and their families are invited to celebrate el Día del Niño/Children’s Day!
This exciting event will feature a variety of Mexican games and activities designed to engage and entertain children. Families can also enjoy delicious traditional Hispanic treats, along with the chance to win prizes. Come and make wonderful memories with your children as we honor them on their special day.
Since 1925, Día del Niño, or Children’s Day, has grown as an annual celebration throughout Mexico. This day celebrates children, recognizes their importance in society, and promotes their well-being. After learning about Mexico’s tradition of celebrating el Día del Niño, children’s book author Pat Mora helped create a new holiday in the United States emphasizing the importance of literacy for children of all linguistic and cultural backgrounds, linking families to diverse books, languages and cultures.
