CHILDREN’S ACTIVITIES

“Children’s Activities” includes the Toddler’s Derby, Doll Contest, the Pre-Teen Tramp. When it comes to the Toddler’s Derby, there is no moment of Carnival as touching as three - ten month olds crawling their way to the finish line and one is diverted from the course by a preferred parent standing on the sideline. What parents do to get their children to finish the race becomes an entertaining treat. There are fascinating schemes and gimmicks to get the children to cross the finish line that ranks among the most amusing moments of Carnival. If you have difficulty getting your child to do what you want, a strategy is right there waiting for you at the Derby.


There are other races that follow where the older children are evenly matched and sprint across a fifteen yard course to the finish line. In all these events, pertinent prizes and trophies are awarded. This is a free event and serves as a great opportunity for the family to bond and enjoy Carnival together.


This day culminates with a Doll Contest where you may just want to reach out and cuddle each contestant. Adults prepare creative costumes depicting famous people, animals, wonders of the world or characters of fantasy. The children are paraded across the stage in a choreography which matches the children’s portrayal.
