The beloved TV personality, puppeteer, and educator Mr. Rogers fully embodied kindness. On his TV show, Mister Rogers Neighborhood, he encouraged children to be themselves.

“Mutual caring relationships require kindness and patience, tolerance, optimism, joy in the other’s achievements, confidence in oneself, and the ability to give without undue thought of gain,” Fred Rogers said.

In addition to World Kindness Day, Wednesday was also Cardigan Day in Pittsburgh.

Cardigan Day was created by TV station WQED, the local PBS affiliate that produced Mr. Roger’s show.

Magee-Williams Hospital decided to do it up this year on Cardigan Day by outfitting some newborn babies in knitted sweaters.
