Children’s Mardi Gras party

They work with creating amazing events and when they’re a wee person in a big world, what’s not to love about a fun thematic party with colourful costumes and fun things to do?

Mardi Gras Party is a fun and vibrant celebration that is synonymous with MLH, 31st night at the Terrace was transformed to a New Orleans type Mardi Gras party hence the Kids Mardi Gras Party or carnival-inspired ambience is the next on the books, but this time it is for the wee people.

Children love to dress up and have fun with their buddies - dressing up, making their own masks and decorating with glitter as well as decorating a king cake.

After that, the children will have some Mardi Gras stuff of their own to help them get in the spirit on March 27 at 3 pm at Mount Lavinia Hotel! Oh, remember to make eye-slits in the masks that are made and maybe one could take it home for Dad.

Games, activities, party food, beverages, party cake, party snacks, gift bag favours, costumes and gifts are all part of the afternoon fun activities.

“No Mardi Gras is complete without a traditional “king cake.” This delectable pastry cake is yours to be decorated with icing and sprinkled with coloured green, yellow and purple sugars. If you don’t want to make a king cake, make a regular cup cake and sprinkle the white frosting with pixie stick sugars or line up cup cakes, each sprinkled with a different color sugar, on a tray,” Chef Asanka says.

Other fun activities will be hand-painting, mask making, magic show, a fabulous children’s buffet and guess what the best dressed will win prizes. Parents can avail themselves to a 50 percent on the Governor’s High Tea so that you could take a break on this day.
