Countdown up to 30 years of children's week Florida

In just 30 days, Florida's largest annual event returns to the State Capitol to get a milestone celebration. The Florida children's week, now in the 30th year, has become more than just an annual meeting-it is a movement that is ensured that every child in the state has been seen, heard and supported all year round.

For three decades, events and activities of the Children's Week United have had legislators, educators, parents, children's attorney and community leaders in a joint commitment to Floridas. What started in 1995 as the only day that devoted itself to prioritization of children in legislative discussions has since developed into a nationwide initiative that has changed positively for small children, teenagers and families throughout Florida.

“This event makes the world a little smaller,” said Erin SmmelzerPresident and CEO der Children's forumOrganizational partner for the event. “It brings together those who work tirelessly to put children in the first place. It is a memory that nobody is alone in this fight – thousands of people in the whole state work every day to improve the life of the children of Florida. “

While Florida is preparing for this big milestone in the children's week, they focus on working with a spacious network of partners in order to transmit the message that every child is healthy, ready to learn and is able to exploit their full potential.

One of the most famous traditions of the event, StoryBook Village, brings books through interactive storytelling, music, dance and celebrity readers. In recent years, the Florida children's week has recognized a gap in accessibility – the hustle and bustle of the day day has been overwhelming for some children.

“This was a blind spot for us,” said Smelzer. “Despite our best intentions, we found that not every child could fully enjoy this experience. That is why we are pleased to announce a story book garden this year, a calm, calming and unique friendly space in which children who may have a sensory overload with the excitement of the day day in Capitol can still experience sensory overload, the joy of awakening a story to life. “

The newcomer also includes experts for trained American sign language (ASL) to ensure that every child can experience the magic of storytelling.

The Florida children's week will take place in the Florida Capitol from April 13th to 18th and offers the legislators, children and partners numerous opportunities to get involved with the topics and to combine with the questions that are important for the future.
