greetings from the CC, well this image scene/place/time has the potential for a great shot. You got kids and color which is a great combo for a subject, but when shooting people eyes is generally key and getting light in them if possible. Your subjects are also a little to central would like to see them further right in the frame so that you can see what is in front of them more.
The image is not completely sharp, tho i like the motion in the hands and of whatever they have in their hands. But if wanted to get it sharp you could bump up your ISO a little. It makes me feel like it is an image of an ear, vs. 2 kids.
The pluses here are kids and color...the down side can't see faces or eyes the composition is poor.

Keep shooting!

with everything going on in chinatown...the paper fireworks erupting, faces lighting up, people pushing around each other and vendors hocking their wares, this seems a strange choice of subject for this challenge.

Such a shame we can't see the expressions on their faces.

needs some more context, or a better view of the childrens faces and object of their attention to be a more compelling street photo.

Nice but would like the child in front to have his arm down...the can is blocking his cute face.
