¿Dónde Jugarán los Niños? ( English: Where Will the Children Play? ) is the second studio album (fifth overall) released by Latin American Mexican rock band Maná released in 1992. This album contained many of the hits that catapulted them to international fame and established them as one of the leading Latin rock acts of the 90's, including "Oye Mi Amor", "¿Dónde Jugarán los Niños? single," the titular song, "Vivir Sin Aire", "Te Llore Un Río", and "De Pies A Cabeza". The album has reached #4 on Billboard's Top Latin Albums Chart. Ulises Calleros (the band's former electric guitarist) was replaced by César "Vampiro" López. The band re-released this album with bonus remixes on February 15, 1994. Singer Mijares covered "Vivir sin Aire" in his 2009 Spanish album Vivir Así.
