What defines a festival? Let’s see, there’s got to be lots of good food, colorful clothes, shiny decorations and of course, loads of merriment. And I can think of one festival that ticks all the boxes – Mardi Gras!

 

Do you know the literal translation of ‘Mardi Gras’? It’s French for ‘Fat Tuesday’! The name came about as a symbol for all the eating people did just before the Lenten fast began. And today, it’s a pretty big deal, when everyone comes decked out in their carnival best.

 

If your kids aren’t familiar with Mardi Gras customs, this is the perfect opportunity to introduce them to a different kind of culture. Mardi Gras will be celebrated on March 5th this year, so you have enough time for some beautiful and colorful Mardi Gras crafts for kids!
