  1. Traditions in Ukraine Prepared by Kate Nadtochiy, 7th form, Kyiv, Ukraine

  2. Ukrainians are very happy, kind and generous people. We love entertaining so we have got many holidays and we celebrate them very interesting. Our holidays are: Ivana Kupala, Easter, Christmas , Masliana, New Year and many others.

  3. We celebrate Easter according to the Orthodox church’s calendar. We paint eggs and cook special for this day cakes.And in the morning all people make battles with eggs. Whose egg is whole that man wins. Easter

  4. New Year • We have New Year at night since 31st December to 1st January. We decorate fir-tree and put presents under a tree. It's very funny and of course we don't sleep all night!!!!!

  5. Masliana Last week of February we celebrate Masliana. The tradition food at Masliana is varenyky and pancakes. Masliana is a women’s holiday, because they like foretelling. However, men celebrate this holiday too.

  6. Ivana Kupala • We celebrate Ivana Kupala at night on 7th July. This day all girls make wreathes decorated with candles and put them in the river or in the lake. Boys catch these wreathes and, according to the legend, if the boy finds the wreath he should marry the girl who has made it. On this holiday a couple, a boy and a girl, should jump over the fire to prove their love.
