Macaroni KID New Iberia Recommends 1/27/22

Our Top 5 Picks Happening This week in New Iberia

By by Tracie Ysaguire, Publisher for Macaroni KID New Iberia January 28, 2022

We are moving out of the first month of this new year and I don't know about you, but I am ready to be done with this month. January seems to be taking it's time with us in order to fully introduce us to 2022. I love having a little bit of a cold weather snap, you know just enough to break out my favorite sweater and boots, but I have had my fill of the cold weather this winter for sure. 

February brings some new events to our area, as well as the much missed Mardi Gras parades and celebrations back to Acadiana. We are also celebrating Black History Month, ringing in the Lunar or Chinese New Year, and of course the holiday that celebrates the ones we love, Valentines Day. 

Be sure to keep coming back to check out our monthly calendar as we continue to add to it each week. If you know of any events that you would like to share with the Macaroni KID New Iberia community, then let us know! You can submit your events directly on our site. 

Now, here are our top 5 recommendations for family fun this week:
