For two years, life on the street, leisure, fun, even playgrounds, was canceled. These days in which there is talk of magicians’ dances, pilgrimages, carnivals, the little ones continue to see that it is difficult to think of them. For this reason, yesterday, on the courts of Casa Pisaca, in El Toscal, in Santa Cruz, the Young May Festival he wanted to be the first to break the ice for a youth that returned to enjoy outdoor activities designed for them. The Mayo Joven Festival became the first after the pandemic exclusively for the youngest.
At least that’s how he defended it.

A climbing wall with climbing routes, a surfing simulator with an instructor, a pedal-powered vehicle circuit, bubble soccer, traditional games with materials and an explanation of the methodology, a personalized button-making workshop, a comic and manga workshop, a stage and a DJ for end of party with holi powders, all this is what could be enjoyed yesterday at the Young May.
