Sundaes, sprinkles, stories and Chuck E. Cheese – these are a few of Melrose Elementary School’s favorite things, and each one was a part of “Día de los Niños” or Children’s Day. At Melrose, they know children represent the hopes and dreams of every community. On Saturday, April 30, the school celebrated children with a special day that supported their well-being, encouraged their dreams and inspired a new generation of achievers. Since 1925, many nations throughout Latin America have celebrated “Día de los Niños.” This day recognizes not only a child’s hopes for the future, but also reflects cultural diversity, and involves families and the community. Students listened to stories read by Chuck E. Cheese, which encourages literacy; built their own sundaes, which was fun and delicious; and received a few prizes.
