A carnival or fair is a type of event where there are many games, rides, and entertainment all in one place. It’s like a big outdoor party with colorful tents and booths. At a carnival or fair, you can play games to win prizes, go on rides that spin and go up and down, and eat tasty treats like cotton candy and popcorn.

festival
A festival is a special event or celebration where people come together to have fun and enjoy different activities. It’s like a big party that can last for a few days or even longer. Festivals often have music, dancing, food, games, and sometimes even parades. People attend festivals to have a good time and celebrate something important or exciting.
gauge (as a verb)
When you gauge something, you’re trying to figure out or estimate its size, amount, or level. It’s like making an educated guess based on what you see or know. For instance, if you look at a line on a ruler to see how long something is, you’re gauging its length. Gauging involves using your judgment to get an idea about something without exact measurements.
