A little bit about Ireland


The island of Ireland is the 3rd largest in Europe. It is called "Emerald" because of the hills and green valleys. The capital of Ireland is Dublin. In Ireland, people believe in fairies and leprechauns.

Christmas in Ireland
Almost every citizen tries to decorate his house for Christmas with bright garlands on the windows and Christmas things.

Instead of a Christmas tree, the Irish use mistletoe branches, also wreaths of clover and lavender.

On Christmas Eve, December 24, a candle is lit by a younger member of the family, which is located at the window, so that people know that hospitable and kind citizens live in this house.
•What do the Irish use for home decorations?

New Year in Ireland
The very meeting of the New Year is reduced to evening gatherings with friends in a bar or at home.

In the first minutes of the New Year, you need to knock with a dried piece of bread on the walls, accompanying the knock with a prayer to drive away evil spirits from your home.

And on January 6, the series of winter holidays in Ireland ends, when Little Christmas is celebrated. On this day, Irish women rest and do nothing about the housework. A man is obliged to visit his mother on this day and make her some kind of gift.

Слайд #11

In conclusion, we want to say that Christmas in Ireland is a family holiday. You can't meet a mass gathering of people on the street. The traditions of the celebration mixed with pagan rituals, which are still very strong in Ireland.
