Let's Create!
-
Mardi Gras is a huge celebration marking the end of the Carnival season. The three main colors are:
Purple: represents justice
Green: represents faith
Gold: represents power
-
For part of the Mardi Gras celebrations, people often wear masks on their faces, that’s what you will create for this activity!
-
Carefully cut the paper plate in half.
-
Then, make two holes for the eyes (we recommend an adult does this as cutting in the middle of the plate may be difficult).
-
Decorate the mask using purple, green, and gold!
-
Attach a popsicle stick to the bottom side of the mask so your child can hold it up to their face!
