For the event, Asahi Kasei Plastics Mexico (APMX) employees brought a photo from their childhood, and participants guessed who was who! We also handed out coupons for a kids’ entertainment center, so the kids also had a fantastic time. Our team loved the event, their kids were thrilled, and everyone appreciated the opportunity to strengthen family bonds! #ChildrensDay #APMX #FamilyFun #APNA
