"A parade to celebrate the 75th anniversary of Children's Fairyland is planned for Labor Day on Monday, with the festivities starting at 19th Street BART Station and ending at the iconic destination at Grand and Bellevue avenues. A number of new displays will await the kids attending with accompanying adults, including circus acts, a live performance by DJ Lance Rock from Nickelodeon's Nick Jr. network and the park's first-ever bilingual puppet show, Tío Conejo's Big Wish."
"The reason I think Fairyland endures is that it's got this through line that appeals to everyone," she explained. "The minute you walk through the gates, you feel the simplicity of entering a different universe, leaving behind whatever world you had on your shoulders." "Everything is built in a child-sized point of view," Miller continued. "As an adult, you're following your little person around as their imagination grows and changes with these storybook themes."
