Evening of fun and entertainment at Mardi Gras Party for families in London on 5th February 2010

London, UK – 12th January, 2010 - London Mums, the only free and independent peer support group for mums based in London, in collaboration with edutainment centre Eddie Catz has organised its annual Carnival Party in the Italian style on 5th February 2010 in its second year running. The event will be a Mardi Gras celebration with a costume parade for a fancy dress competition, face painting, traditional Carnevale treats but most importantly Squiggle the Story-Teller. Squiggle’s other characters include Charlie the Clown, Captain Bluster the Pirate, The Jolly Jester and Mr Wiz the Wizard. Great prizes for everyone and big prizes for the best costumes – kids and grown ups too - handed out by Eddie Catz in person!

It has become now an annual tradition for multicultural London Mums to celebrate Carnival the Italian way. Carnevale, also known as carnival or mardi gras, is celebrated in Italy and many places around the world 40 days before Easter, a final party before Ash Wednesday and the restrictions of Lent. Carnevale in Italy is a huge winter festival celebrated with parades, masquerade balls, entertainment, music, and parties.

Tickets can be purchased directly through the Eddie Catz online shop which now includes a dedicated London Mums events’ section: http://shop.eddiecatz.com/category/21/London_MumsEvents <http://shop.eddiecatz.com/category/21/London_MumsEvents>
