This year's kick-off activity is the ๐ฃ๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ป๐ ๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ ๐๐ต๐ถ๐น๐ฑ ๐ฆ๐ธ๐ถ๐ ๐๐ผ๐ป๐๐ฒ๐๐ where day care children with their parent/guardian portrayed how a child can help build a Stronger La Union, a province worth living-in and at the same time, how their rights as children are protected and provided amidst the present COVID-19 pandemic.
The month-long activities are Parent-Child Dance Contest, Vocal Solo, and Poem, among others, with the active participation of the Provincial Council for the Protection of Children (PCPC).
Republic Act No. 10661 s. 2015 declares the month of November of every year as "National Children's Month," which commemorates the adoption of the Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC) by the United Nations (UN) General Assembly on November 20, 1989. It mandates local governments to facilitate and encourage the celebration of this month.
The PGLU recognizes children as the nation's most valuable assets and emphasizes their role in nation-building.
