Havana, July 15, (RHC), -- Cubans flocked to theaters, movies, squares, parks, streets, sports fields, and beaches on Sunday to celebrate the national Children’s Day, commemorated on the island on the third Sunday of July.
Urban venues across the country vibrated with theater and musical performances, contests, games and dance.
This is a special day, because everything here (Cuba) is made for the wellbeing and defense of the children’s right to happiness, said the President of the Jose Marti Pioneer Organization, Manuel Valera.
Valera recalled that the third Sunday of July festivity was proposed by the children themselves during a meeting with Cuban Revolution leader Fidel Castro, in 1974.
