Today is Día del Niño, or Children’s Day.  I really don’t know the origin of the day or how we are supposed to celebrate our children any differently (or more) than a regular day.

Maybe it just means more ice cream and time at the park?

Either way, it is a big deal here in Mexico.  The daycare was closed today (perhaps as a final reminder to all parents that TODAY is all about your baby) so they celebrated on Friday.

All the teacher’s dressed up as Disney characters and the kids did a special project with lots of colors, marshmallows and cookies.
