Pittsburgh hospital celebrates World Kindness Day by dressing up newborns as Mister Rogers
Babies born at UPMC Magee-Womens Hospital in Pittsburgh celebrated their first World Kindness Day with a very special guest.
World Kindness Day is Nov. 13, and it's a good fit for Pittsburgh, where Fred Rogers taught children the importance of goodwill on his classic children's television show Mister Rogers' Neighborhood. UPMC Magee-Womens Hospital nurse Caitlin Pechin decided to mark the occasion by crocheting tiny red cardigans with ties and booties for the newborns, in honor of Mister Rogers' signature attire.
