Success at la Fête des Enfants!

This summer, families [were] invited to discover Park Jean-Drapeau’s treasures at the Fête des enfants, August 14 to 16! The Fête is a place for self-expression and creation for children and their families, and [...] once again offer[ed] concerts and dance shows as well as creative and athletic workshops, cooperative games, and inflatable climbing structures… free! - Taken from the Parc Jean Drapeau Website

Kids Help Phone also took part in the celebrations by supplying entertaining puppet shows to all ages in its very own theatre tent!

The Puppet shows conveyed the importance of the reliable and safe service available to Kids aged five to twenty one throughout Canada. The puppet shows, complete with a 1-800-668-6868 song and Nestle Chocolate bar giveaways were a great success! A heartfelt thank you for all those that made this past weekend’s events such a great success! The volunteers at the tent, who operated the puppet shows, lead the Kids Help Phone quizzes, set up and all around ensured the tent’s smooth running in which was at times excruciating heat, were all tremendous. Fun was had by not only the kids who participated; the volunteers had just as an amazing time! We’re already looking forward to taking part in next year’s festival!
