There are 4 casitas or houses for the children. Each have their own madre tutora (mother figure) and their own personalities. Casita Tesoros del Rey is special because they have a madre tutora AND a padre tutora. Hugo and Sarita are married and together they parent this casita. They live with the children and have 4 days off a month. Hugo is also responsible for cleaning the albergue and facility. They invited us over one night to chat, play and get to know Casita Tesoros better. It ended up being a wonderful display of each of the boys' talents... one-handed cartwheels, dance moves, arm wrestling and joke telling.
