I believe you'll find that life for children in Brazil is very similar to that here. They watch the same cartoons, eat cereal, love Hershey candy, and wear basically the same clothing.

Brazil is a democracy. As such, life there is suprisingly similar to life here. One thing that really surprised me was how they are generally two years ahead of the United States when it comes to receiving the latest fashions from Europe.

Here is a country profile for Brazil from the BBC's website:

I hope these sites gave you an idea of the clothing children are wearing in Brazil. You might want to try "right-clicking" or pressing your "Prt Sc" button to take screen shots, so use as photo examples.

Cheers,
Mark
