PCR 6.6 Family Day

We would like to gather all the parents to High Line Park as a celebration for a holiday. This is a very special park, on the bridge built by the old railway.

For many parents who are unfamiliar with the traffic, it is actually very difficult for parents with 2 or 3 children to go out.

They have no friends or relatives living in New York. Most of the time, they choose to stay at home, but the space at home is not enough for the children.

This time we had 30 families participating in the event. The youngest is only a few months old and the oldest is 16 or 17 years old. We helped each other along the way, and the kids made new friends.

We stayed at each site for about half an hour to let the children play freely and get back to the location before the end of the half hour. Small assignments were also given to them, such as collecting 20 flowers.

Looking at everyone's laughter at each event is the best outcome. Besides Mom and Dad, there are some grandmas who have brought their children into our team. Many parents are busy with their work and have no way to take their children out. Hopefully, more grandparents will join us.

Don't forget it's important to spend time with your children.

I look forward to seeing you next time we meet.
