The Early Childhood Education Center (ECEC) is pleased to invite you to our upcoming
Grandparents Day Celebration, honoring the grandparents, elders, and extended family members who play an important role in the lives of our children and families.
ROOTS, STORIES & LOVE
Walking Together Through Generations
Date:
Friday, September 4, 2026
Time:
10:00 AM – 11:30 AM
Location:
Early Childhood Education Center (ECEC)
This year's celebration will provide an opportunity for children, families, staff, grandparents, and elders to come together in recognition of the relationships, traditions, stories, and experiences that connect generations.
As part of the celebration, ECEC will host a
Grandparents Day Art Walk, featuring children's artwork inspired by the themes of Roots, Stories, and Love. The Art Walk will provide children an opportunity to express their understanding of family, relationships, culture, and the special people who help shape their lives.
O'ODHAM BINGO
A special O'odham Bingo activity will also be included as part of the celebration. We are excited to incorporate this cultural activity into our event while creating an enjoyable opportunity for grandparents and families to participate together.
TRADITIONAL LUNCH
Following the celebration, we would be honored to have our ECEC families, grandparents, and elders join us for a Traditional Lunch. This gathering will provide an opportunity to share a meal, build relationships, and continue strengthening the partnerships that support the children and families we serve.
