The Leons carry the torch... 

My son Anthony is a young history buff who loves going to the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles and the Bowers Kidseum in Santa Ana. At Bowers he learns about cultural art through fun activities. I'm always proud to have him with me at Pobladores' functions and I can't wait till his sister Alex is old enough to join in on the fun. These things are expected to build our children's own sense of pride and belonging as they are exposed to their heritage and others who share the same interests.
