In recent years, however, are spreading like wildfire numerous themed events, festivals and celebrations that are based on specific individual issues but, specifically or inadvertently, end up in some way to draw the carnival.
The carnival, which we feast of excellence that allows us to disguise and dissolve the social rules for certain days of the year has its roots in ancient rituals of the Greek Dionysian festivals and the Roman Saturnalia calls. Despite these pagan origin carnival is a festival that is celebrated mainly by the traditionally Catholic countries. The carnival was, and still is, albeit in less felt in some places, albeit symbolic renewal period during which all social orders were subverted in favor of chaos, chaos which promptly fell at the end of the celebration of a particular party renewal.
And these traditions have been preserved in many places in the world, just think of the famous Rio Carnival, where are the masters of dance costumes and dancers, or the nearest Carnival of Viareggio, where the carts are one of the oldest traditions in Italy, moments in which everyone is free to run wild in the streets and disconnect from the routine. But despite these events during the reign of chaos and confusion there are some elements unique characteristics that make this celebration. First, do not miss the masks, which in some cases given the number of people are real supply of masks. The mask is in fact precisely the element that allows you to subvert order hiding their personality and allowing himself to be who you want to be.
Another essential, especially for children who are dedicated to various manifestations are the confetti, many factories involved in production of confetti that are specialized by creating many different shapes and materials enabling you to leave room for imagination and color. It is precisely these small pieces of paper that allow children to subvert order, just think how many times the mothers, the teachers and educators generally repeat the youngest not dirty, not cluttering, etc.. There are also related to confetti streamers that are also used as decorations and games.
