Each year huge crowds of people celebrate New Year’s Eve in New York City’s Times Square.

Carnival parades through the streets of New Orleans begin 12 days before Mardi Gras Day.
Did you know that Mardi Gras is French for “Fat Tuesday”?
Kiss me, I am Irish!
Legend tells that Patrick used the shamrock to explain the concept of the Holy Trinity, with each leaf representing one of the triad. To this day, the shamrock is an image associated with Saint Patrick and has become the unofficial symbol of St. Patty's Day.
Traditions associated with the festival survive in the Easter rabbit, a symbol of fertility, and in colored easter eggs, originally painted with bright colors to represent the sunlight of spring, and used in Easter-egg rolling contests or given as gifts.
When is Mother's Day?
Mother’s Day is celebrated by Americans on the second Sunday in May. Mothering Sunday in the UK is celebrated on the 4th Sunday of Lent.
M - O - T - H - E - R
"M" is for the million things she gave me,
"O" means only that she's growing old,
"T" is for the tears she shed to save me,
"H" is for her heart of purest gold;
"E" is for her eyes, with love-light shining,
"R" means right, and right she'll always be,
Put them all together, they spell
"MOTHER,"
A word that means the world to me.
Howard Johnson (c. 1915)
Trick or treat, Smell my feet
Give me something good to eat !!!
Since then it is celebrated on the fourth Thursday of each November as the holiday.
