An EXCEPTIONAL story from Northeast News offers important Kansas City history and shows us that traditions continue to adapt amid the local holiday season.
Here's the passage that stood out for us along with a link to the report . . .
"Fairy Princess — a tradition of a selected individual dressing in princess attire for children to share their holiday wishes, in a majorly similar Santa Claus fashion — began in 1935 at Kline’s Department Store, which was formerly located on Main Street, Downtown Kansas City . . .
When Kline’s officially closed its doors in the 1970s, it left Kansas City nearly two decades without a Fairy Princess. However, in 1987, KCM decided to continue this tradition at its location, 3218 Gladstone Blvd . . .
Kansas City Museum is in its 37th year of granting holiday wishes to children and families across the Northeast Community and Kansas City Metro through its rendition of Fairy Princess."
