Today is Día del Niño in Mexico. Today and every April 30th Mexican children are celebrated and may receive gifts, break piñatas and participate in other fun activities designed just for them.

In Spanish-speaking communities in the United States it has become customary to celebrate Día del Niño and Día del Libro on the same day. It is a great way to celebrate reading with children. Be sure to check out your local library to see if they are celebrating today!
