A Journey Through Time at Santa Fe Fiesta de Los Niños
Looking for a family-friendly event that brings New Mexico’s rich history to life? Look no further than the annual Santa Fe Fiesta de Los Niños at El Rancho de las Golondrinas! This immersive celebration is a fantastic way to step into the vibrant past of New Mexico, offering activities that will captivate both kids and adults alike.
What to Expect at Fiesta de Los Niños
Fiesta de Los Niños is packed with hands-on experiences that transport you back in time. From traditional crafts like tin stamping and tortilla making to meeting friendly farmyard animals, there’s something for everyone to enjoy. While the event is especially suited for older kiddos, my toddler had an absolute blast! He loved running around in the mud, watching the lively performances and even got to make his own leather stamping – a memory we’ll cherish.
Family Fun and Delicious Food
One of the highlights for us was the kid-friendly food options from @what_the_truck_santa_fe. Their delicious offerings kept everyone happy and fueled for more fun. We also couldn’t resist picking up a New Mexico-themed coloring book from @intothehollowdesigns – the perfect souvenir to remember our day.
What makes this event so special is that it truly grows with your child. Each year, as my kids get older, they’ll be able to participate in more activities and experience the fiesta in new ways. It’s a tradition we’re excited to continue!
