Carnival?
It is a celebration in February in many countries, such as America, Brazil,

and costumes.

Technically, it is celebrated
on Shrove Tuesday, the day
before Lent starts (Ash

can last for more than one day.
Some even have a Mardi Gras
season starting in January!

The original idea was to pass beads out during the parade to people who
exhibited the traits of the three Mardi Gras colors: justice, faith, power.

The coconuts were originally left in their natural state but are now
