Read about the history of Cinco de Mayo here. I had thought that the holiday was to celebrate an Independence day for Mexico, but it's not! The date is observed to commemorate the Mexican army's unlikely victory over French forces at the Battle of Puebla on May 5, 1862.
On Tuesday, May 8, we will:
- enjoy some music and dance a "hat dance"
- Play "Jalapeno Hop"
- Enjoy some vegetarian burritos with Miss Kourtney's home-made tortillas and re-fried beans.
- Recipe here. I make these beans once a month in our house and the whole family loves them! I love that are simple to make and are made from scratch with a few "real" ingredients.
You can find Cinco de Mayo information, recipes, crafts, and ideas for home here.
Happy playing!
