Top 3 ways to celebrate Cinco de Mayo

May 02, 2012

A great holiday to celebrate in early May is Cinco de Mayo. This is a holiday that honors Mexican heritage and pride as well as commemorating the beginning of democracy and freedom during the first years of the American Civil War. Although there is a ton of history to be discussed on this day, more people in today's society view the date as a great time to host a party.

1. Pinata. A great and fun way to entertain the kids (and the adults) at your Cinco de Mayo party is to hang a festive pinata. Head to your local party store and select a colorful donkey or Mexican sombrero pinata and then fill it up with tons of candy. The children will love hitting the object and going after the candy.

2. Party food. No Cinco de Mayo celebration would be complete without delicious Mexican fare. You can make fun and colorful nachos, tacos or even guacamole dip to keep your guests full and happy. Making a signature drink like a margarita will also add more flair to your gathering.

3. Festive flowers. Flowers are a perfect way to celebrate a holiday and the wonderful colors of spring. A vibrant collection like Teleflora's Perfectly Pleasing Pinks bouquet is sure to impress your guests. This arrangement contains gorgeous affordable flowers like mums, stock gerberas, roses and dainty greens that offer pops of color to your indoor or outdoors space.
