Bailando Kids is an Argentine dancing competition show on the show Bailando por un Sueño (which is, at the same time, the Argentine version of Dancing with the Stars) involving couples composed of children from 7 to 12 years old who are judged by a jury. It was broadcast by El Trece and the host was Marcelo Tinelli during the first three weeks and then José María Listorti during the next four. It premiered on May 7, 2009 and the season finale was on June 19, 2009. The show was strongly criticized by various sectors for manipulation of the child competitors.
The jury were the dancer Laura Fidalgo, theatral directors Reina Reech and Carmen Barbieri and comedian Miguel Angel Cherutti. The winner was Pedro Maurizi partnered with Candela Rodríguez.
The show wasn't renewed for a new season due to low ratings. El Trece continued producing the standard competition for adults instead in further years.[1][2]
