This day recognises the importance of responsible parenting in day to day life and was established in 1994.
World Parents Day is essential as we honour the most important people in our lives. They nurture and protect the child all the time. This day not only reminds us of the selfless sacrifices our parents made for us, but it also reminds us of our responsibilities towards our parents.
The theme for this year is “Appreciate all parents throughout the world”.
I'm sure the children I teach appreciate their parents, but they do enjoy laughing at the funny things parents do. So here are some books from the library where children get to laugh at parents.
And of course there's always the ever popular
The World's Worst Parents by David Walliams.
Another lovely idea. Yesterday at the Kids hospital we gave each parent a heart stickers when they borrowed books for and with their child. My library co worker always does beautiful things like this. Thanks for highlighting another special day.
