Pioneer children’s groups and facilities, squares, streets, children’s homes, pediatric
hospitals and wards, both in rural and urban areas throughout the island, will host this fiesta.
    
On Friday, Cuban children and adolescents will send their contemporaries in all parts of the planet a message of friendship and confidence in the future, highlighted Manuel Valera, vice-president of the Jose Marti Pioneer Children’s Organization.
     
Valera informed that on June 1st there will be special activities at schools, carried out by pioneer children, boy and girl scouts, amateur artists and creators, among others. The celebration will include innumerable cultural, sports, didactic and recreational options.
  
The El Salvador Primary School of the municipality of Old Havana will be the main venue of this festivity, which will have the enthusiastic support of families, communities, institutions, and society as a whole.

In 1954, the UN General Assembly established the annual celebration of an International Children’s Day for the well-being of children and for understanding and fraternity between all of them around the world, in the date each State decided, and Cuba, like other nations, chose June 1st.
