The government of Formosa organized a series of celebrations for Children’s Day involving toy distributions and public festivals.

Initially, officials coordinated the logistics to distribute more than 200,000 toys to children in provincial schools. Subsecretary of Consumer and User Defense Edgar Pérez described the initiative as a “political decision” by Governor Gildo Insfrán to utilize provincial resources for the gifts.

Following the distribution, festivals were held on August 22 and 23, attracting over 30,000 participants. These events included musical performances, games, and bicycle raffles, with significant turnouts at the Paraíso de los Niños complex and in Jurisdicción Cinco.
