A group birthday party for six children was held on Sunday at a resettlement site in the Changkar village of Dingri county, Xizang autonomous region, to provide comfort following the destructive earthquake.
Over 30 children from three nearby resettlement areas also joined the celebration. They sang birthday songs, made wishes and ate cake.
The psychological rescue team of the Sichuan branch of the Red Cross Society of China organized the celebration.
Song Yao, head of the psychological relief team, said the team hoped the party would help the children have a new beginning after the disaster and recover from the upheaval.
Song and his team also organized soccer matches, painting and other activities for children affected by the earthquake in recent days.
