Over to you:

Watch the videos.

Why is the renaming of cities during carnaval confusing for tourists?

Why did people dress-up in medieval times?

Do people still dress-up for that reason?

What did members of the middle class do in s'-Hertogenbosch when the bishop tried to cancel carnaval?

The video talks about renaming cities. What is your village/city named during Carnival? And how would you translate it to English?

Do you know where your city or village's carnaval name comes from? Do some research and explain it in English. (Like you would trying to explain it to a foreigner abroad.)

Next up: Writing

Do you celebrate carnaval? Explain why or why not! (50~ words)

Do you remember what you dressed up as last carnival? Describe the outfit use full sentences! Or if you didn't celebrate carnaval what did you do instead during the break?

Would you recommend celebrating carnaval to a friend from abroad? Give 2 reasons why or why not.

All done!

Hopefully now you can help confused tourists when they come to the Netherlands during carnaval times!
