In Cajun English, make dodo means "go night-night", it's something you tell to a little kid to tell them to go to sleep. But in Cajun French, fait do do was what women told their kids whenever they went dancing. They would take the whole family with them (if the kids were little), and there would be a side partition alongside the dance hall where the kids would be put to "fait do-do" (or if you don't understand "faire dormir"), so the parents could go dancing.
