Swampy's Florida

Swampy’s gang celebrates little children everywhere, including Bunny!

Children’s Day began the second Sunday of June in 1856 by the Reverend Dr. Charles Leonard, pastor of the Universalist Church of the Redeemer in Chelsea, Mass. Dr. Leonard christened the day, Rose Day. later it was named flower day. Still later the second Sunday of the month of July was named Children’s Day. Interesting that Wikipedia had the wrong information, which I corrected.
