The Ministry of Community Affairs, Gender and Housing, and the Department of Children and Family Services, are organizing a whole month of events to celebrate the 16th annual Child Month observance.
Encouraging national participation, Minister of Community Affairs, Mike Adam said, "We owe it to ourselves to nurture and nourish our children. How we treat them is key to the development of this country, for they are our future leaders. Although Child Month is observed in May, I urge you celebrate the children of these islands every month."
Cassandra Parchment, the child month coordinator for the Department of Children and Family Services, said, "The early years are the foundation of our children's lives, so let's show them love, share quality time and motivate them to achieve their dreams."
Lots of activities, ranging from readings and scavenger hunts, to board games and fitness instructions, will highlight this year's theme: Educate and Motivate.
A family fun day and exposition will be held at Pedro St. James on the Discovery Day public holiday, Monday, 21st May from noon to 4pm.
