In efforts of exploring and exposing my family to other cultural traditions I wanted to share some awesome ways to celebrate Mardi Gras and Chinese New Year! My kids were introduced to both Mardi Gras and Chinese New Year in a very small way last year and every year I want to continue to make the effort to share something new with them. Here is a list of different DIYs, crafts for kids, recipes for the family!
