Día del Niño

As if birthdays and Christmas aren´t enough reasons to celebrate being a kid, Argentina has an entire day dedicated to kids - el día del niño.  The 10 year old in me is ridiculously jealous.
The last Friday in August was the Luciérnaga´s celebration of the Día del Niño.  It was an opportunity for all of the children, wives, nieces, nephews, girlfriends, and siblings of the canillitas to gather at the luci.  Panchos and cookies and milk were served, Payaso Ricky (Ricky the clown) entertained, and endless games of football and a bounce house kept the kids busy.

Terrifying.  But the kids loved him.
