June 1st, World Children's Day, should always be celebrated remembering the importance of children's rights.
It is a privilege to grow up in a country like ours, where there are no wars, children have access to education and can be free.
As a way to celebrate this day, we were inspired by ( @familia_pumpkin ), to bring parents and children tips on activities to do with their families on June 1st.
