He issued executive order "Dreamer", allowing illegal children to become legal.

Actually, no, the DREAM Act and the executive order based on it do not allow illegal children to become legal.
It allows illegal students enrolled in a school to become legal if they meet the following criteria:
- have good moral character;
- enrollment in a secondary or post-secondary education program or current application to a college or junior college;
- entered the United States by age 16 and were no older than 25;
- resided continuously in the United States for a minimum of five year

The children currently entering the United States do not meet that criteria and so do not qualify to stay.

Thousands of children are crossing the border illegally as we speak.

Unrelated.
