Holidays on the Net invites you to our Mardi Gras party at "Mardi Gras on the Net."

Mardi Gras is a traditional holiday celebrated in many of the southern states of the USA. The most famous celebration takes place in New Orleans, Louisiana. It is celebrated with
parades, “beads, doubloons, and trinkets”, masquerade balls and
King Cakes.

So join Holidays on the Net as we share this holiday with you. We have the history behind Mardi Gras, pictures of floats, crafts, coloring sheets, books, and a recipe to make your own “King Cake”!
