After six weeks of lockdown, Spanish children were allowed outside on Sunday, April 26, but controversy was soon to follow.

Many complained that given the State of Emergency, the parents of the children were being very lax with the regulations as videos emerged of games being played, as well as bicycles and scooters in use.

Pavements and walkways were somewhat congested and groups of parents were seen chatting on benches with a lack of social distancing.
