How You Know You’re at a Latino Children’s Party:

All of you are well aware that there is a distinct difference between a Latino party and a party given by anybody else not classified as Latino. It’s true! Let’s just be honest .We love to PARTY and it doesn’t matter if the event is for someone turning two or twenty. I listed ten things I like to call Latinoisms:

-You receive the invitation and the time reads 2:00pm-??? Party all night long!


-People do not arrive until 5:00p.m., although it read 2:00pm on the invitation.


-You get a phone call from the mother asking you to make your famous potato salad; when you ask for how many people she says “ Pues yo pienso que como unos doscientos


-You get to the party and the birthday girl looks like a mini bride, even though its 110 degrees outside.


-The Mother is dressed in spandex con sus tacones en chinga, running around making sure there is a salsa bowl at every table.


-There is one gift for every twenty people.


-The banda and DJ are setup. Cepillin songs by day and Los Tieranos del Norte at night.


-They pass out the loot bags and one gets handed to every person, despite of age.


-There is a keg stand right in between the jumper and the gift table.


-The cake was made from “La senora que hace pasteles” .
