In the United States, Easter is big holiday. It is celebrated with baskets of candy and plastic eggs full of candy. One of my favorite Easter candies is a marshmallow candy called Peeps. What celebrations do you have?

  4. Hello there.

    I am from Venezuela. My favorite holiday growing up was Carnavales, or Carnival in English. You might know it as Mardi Gras. It was a chance to wear costumes and have water balloon fights with all the kids on the street. I remember dressing up as a baby chick, a cow girl and a medieval princess, but we took off the costumes before the water balloons came out!

    I am now living in Egypt. We have a long weekend this week because on Sunday, the Egyptians celebrate Orthodox Easter and on Monday, the whole country celebrates Sham el Nessim, a spring festival from the time of the pharaohs. People go on picnics to eat spring onions and a smelly pickled fish. There are murals on ancient temples showing the pharaohs celebrating spring with that same food. That means it was a festival celebrated 5000 years ago!

    Hope all of your celebrations are fun and full of joy.

    • I think Mardi Gras is a very cool holiday. I also think that it is cool that Orthodox Easter was from 5000 years ago.
