Youngsters sing for elderly on UN Children’s Day

NURSERY children have been entertaining elderly care home residents as part of the United Nations Universal Children’s Day.

Youngsters from Orchard Day Nursery, in Huyton, near Liverpool, put on a singing show at nearby Aaron Grange Care Home.

The home’s residents and staff enjoyed the performance and joined in with many of the songs.

Clare Richards, home manager at Aaron Grange Care Home, on Blacklow Brow, Huyton, said: “There were lots of sing-along songs and the residents thoroughly enjoyed it.

“They’re all looking forward to the children visiting again and getting involved with arts and crafts, reading, board games and other fun activities.”

The UN Universal Children’s Day is celebrated each year to promote international togetherness, awareness among children worldwide, and improving children’s welfare.
