Today's craft for the children's english is a clown noise maker for tomorrow's Carnival parade. We are learning colors, shapes, and body parts of the face. The hair is carnival streamers. Although Carnival is celebrated here like Mardi Gras, it has some differences in the traditions. The symbol for Carnival is a clown and the colors of carnival include all the primary colors. Everyone wears super silly and creative costumes for the parade including kids and adults. Similar to Mardi Gras it is a big party time for the adults with lots of drinking. I'm looking forward to the parade tomorrow to top off our 6 straight days of carnival events. I hear at the parade they throw all kinds of things at the crowd, not just beads. I'll let you know tomorrow what kind of booty we collect.
