Where does the word confetti come from?

The word confetti comes from Italian. Originally it meant small candies that were tossed into the crowd during carnival. Later people switched to colorful paper bits – cheaper, and they don't hurt anyone. In a confetti popper, the paper sits inside a tube and gets launched out with a whoosh. Important: always aim up, never at faces – and clean up together afterward.

Ideas with the confetti picture

After coloring, glue real paper confetti or hole-punch dots around the popper to turn it into a collage. You can also count how many hearts, stars and circles are flying.
