Ramsia: | December 17th, 2019 | 4:18 pm

We meet at home, make dumplings, before when we were children, our parents came up with some kind of riddles for us and we guessed them, it was fun. While the children are small, but in the future I'm thinking of continuing the tradition.

Tatiana: | December 17th, 2019 | 2:59 pm

We have a tradition of printing out the best photos of the past year and pasting them into a family album, remembering the past year.

Anna: | December 16th, 2019 | 11:04 pm

Every year the whole family makes chocolate sausage, then we give some to relatives.
After the chiming clock, we go to watch the fireworks, we leave the windows open. Upon their return, children are waiting for gifts from DM.
Cooking salads for the movie Irony of Fate ...
Christmas songs also help create the right atmosphere.
I also love to wrap gifts for my relatives.

Vlad: | December 16th, 2019 | 9:52 am

For the New Year, I give everyone new pajamas, nightgowns. At some point, the gala dinner turns into pajama party

Lily: | December 14th, 2019 | 12:40 pm

We also decorate the Christmas tree and the house together, made wreaths, bake gingerbread cookies. This year we are moving right before the new year to a new apartment, I hope that we will have time to prepare everything. On New Year's Eve we meet either with friends or with parents and all holidays are for guests. This year they will come to us. There is a special tradition for children - from January 1, every day they look for a little surprise under the tree from the cause of frost, this year the main gifts will be on the morning of January 1 (traditionally, this is a Lego set and a Book for everyone), sweets in New Year's Sock. Adults in our country receive gifts from adults, and children receive gifts from the cause of frost. Be sure to walk in the forest during the holidays, ride cheesecakes, ice skates and meet with family and friends.
Next year I want to make Advent calendars and a gingerbread house for children, maybe my hands will reach a homemade fireplace

Tanya: | December 14th, 2019 | 12:39 pm

Before the New Year, we gather with friends and bake gingerbread, everyone takes a piece home and decorates as desired. Such a tradition appeared when the son was small, it was necessary to give some small gifts to all grandparents, and we decided to bake cookies in the shape of New Year's creatures and decorate with icing. Each set was packed in specially purchased bags and decorated with ribbons, papers with wishes (mini postcards). Plus, the child drew postcards.
They also gathered to make toys from felt and improvised materials with their own hands, made animals, angels, Christmas wreaths ...
My mother always gives us a new toy for the Christmas tree, she still has such a tradition, plus we go with the family and buy what is missing - new garlands, beautiful New Year's candles, new toys, masks and funny hats.

We always buy a live pine tree, and we start guarding the New Year's market with Christmas trees in advance, although everyone is not on the way from work, we make a detour and check whether the Christmas trees have already been brought for sale or not. We are trying to buy a pine tree right away)))) but usually they ask to come the next day, they say, let’s at least unload them and arrange them) so we are always among the first, dragging home our “spruce-pine tree” under the envious glances of passers-by
We decorate everything together, this is also a tradition. Sweet symbols of the year have already been bought and are waiting in the wings, which can be hung on a Christmas tree. It's true that they rarely live until the 31st)

We don’t cook much, but we always decorate in a winter way, beautifully ... And we try not to repeat ourselves. We also decorate the table with beads, candles.

The aroma lamp has been working for us all December, the house smells of oranges and cinnamon, the son will cut out snowflakes and this weekend we will decorate the apartment.

And, of course, always as the first snow falls, we go to play snowballs and sledding, regardless of age. But this year we are not promised snow soon, so we will come up with other traditions.

Wishlists used to be written on next year, then it is interesting to see what they have done ... For some reason, they stopped doing this, it is necessary to revive the tradition.

Gifts are handed out at midnight. But in the morning, the son also finds a gift from Santa Claus)

Svetlana: | December 14th, 2018 | 3:58 pm

Every year on December 31st
1. We write letters to Santa Claus with children,
2. We make dumplings (since 2017, now we take care of them in advance)
4. Last year we went to the skating rink
3. After 12.00 at night we go for a walk to mercy and launch lanterns with wishes.
4. After a walk on returning home, the children find gifts under the tree.

This year, on the 31st, from morning until lunch, we plan to make a snowman in the yard with the whole family. Or we will go to the pine forest for a walk in the mysterious silence of the forest

Natalia: | December 14th, 2018 | 12:05 pm

A very interesting article, for several years I have been wanting to introduce a tradition of buying an expensive Christmas tree toy, but I can’t make up my mind, all the same it will be glass, and there are still small children. I also liked the tradition of writing wishes for the next year, and then watching whether it came true or not.
We also have standard traditions of decorating the Christmas tree, on 30 we go to the village and on 31 we go to the bathhouse.
I didn’t see such a tradition in anyone, which came from my family, be sure to meet New Year in new underwear.

Inna: | December 14th, 2018 | 11:58 am

The game “Secret Santa Claus” has taken root in our family, for my day.r. at the end of November, a lottery is drawn, who congratulates whom. A chat is created in which each participant writes a letter to DM, the age of the participants is 5-74 g, the letter is a child with the help of adults, but also speaks on the video (this is how a collection of letters is created) Everyone walks mysterious, smiles, decorate gifts with love and humor. Arriving at KV, we put gifts under the Christmas tree. At midnight, we all leave the room, go in one at a time, look for our name on the box. The action begins .... one by one we open the gift, everyone else applauds, the one who opens, stares at the faces and tries to guess who his DM is, so everyone opens and makes a guess. Then the second round, the DM confesses to whom he gives a gift and we check who has the same, it will be a good year!

Julia: | December 14th, 2018 | 11:41 am

And to us every night after St. Nikolay elves arrive. They put the letter and presents in a special Mailbox. Children are really looking forward to this Advent, and since October I have started buying small gifts from the elves))

Anastasia: | December 14th, 2018 | 11:37 am

Maria: | December 14th, 2018 | 9:10 am

We have been making Advent calendars for 4 years now. Be sure to decorate the Christmas tree together. Gifts for everyone under the tree.

Xenia: | December 14th, 2018 | 8:37 am

Traditions from my childhood:
-decorate a Christmas tree
- gifts under the tree “appear” after 12))) while everyone is running fireworks to launch
- cut out snowflakes and decorate windows with them
- I draw a "newspaper" either with the symbol of the year, or with wishes, or with photographs of significant events of the outgoing year
- in December, be sure to go to the theater both by yourself and with your son
Of the ones I entered:
- advent calendar with sweets for the whole december
- I bake gingerbread and hang it with my son on the Christmas tree, then we take one at a time and eat it)))

Xenia: | December 25th, 2017 | 4:51 pm

Our traditions: we buy big beautiful toy or with the symbol of the year; to the sound of the chimes, we write a wish on a piece of paper, burn it, throw it into a glass of champagne and drink it to the bottom. And also my personal tradition every New Year to watch “ Real love” :) I really liked the tradition of giving a gift to the house

Elena: | December 18th, 2017 | 2:59 pm

We decorate the Christmas tree and dress the house together with our son, this year we made a red dog out of polymer clay, olive oil on the table is a must, and tangerines, a letter to Santa Claus, gifts under the Christmas tree.

Elena: | December 18th, 2017 | 3:22 dp

Dasha, thank you for the ideas. We are a young family, this year we will meet NG at home for the first time, we will start, as a tradition of writing a letter, eclairs with wishes, every new year, with a new beautiful Christmas tree toy, and then we will give it to a child.

Galina: | December 17th, 2017 | 11:12 pm

We had a tradition in our family - as they dressed up the Christmas tree, on the same night Santa Claus leaves gifts under the Christmas tree. The eldest believed until the age of 10, and the youngest at the age of 6 lay in wait for Santa Claus - he was very interested in how he got into the house. And mom was caught at the scene of the crime at 3:00 in the morning. But, my daughter is 40 years old, my son is 35, and they are still looking for gifts under the tree ...

Alexandra: | December 17th, 2017 | 10:27 pm

We celebrate the New Year at the dacha with a family of about 15-20 people with children.
In the yard there is already an elegant Christmas tree alive, over the past summer it has grown very well and has pubescent, just a super spruce!
Everyone brings dishes to the dacha at their discretion, having discussed in advance

Olga: | December 17th, 2017 | 6:19 pm

We decorate the Christmas tree on December 30 and. k. We have small children, and by the evening the tree is almost empty. Every New Year with my parents at our house.

Julia: | December 17th, 2017 | 6:12 pm

Be sure to decorate the Christmas tree with the children. We buy live pine every year. We cut out snowflakes with children and decorate windows. Bought a third ball this year self made for the youngest son. Now they each have their own. I try to replenish my collection of Christmas decorations every year.
For the New Year's table I try to cook something new. We try to have dinner at 8-9 o'clock, and at midnight we have champagne and delicious tartlets.

Zoya: | December 17th, 2017 | 2:25 pm

We celebrate the New Year at home with the whole family. There is a decorated Christmas tree in the yard and the house itself is also decorated. Gifts for adults are under the tree, but you can’t look at them until 24.00. For kids, Santa Claus brings gifts under the Christmas tree on the street and leaves them in a bag. They see all this through the window, then they run for gifts. We are writing a letter to Santa Claus before NG. Mandatory photo shoot for every New Year

Margarita: | December 16th, 2017 | 9:45 pm

Every year we always get into the car at 9-10 pm and drive around all the big Christmas trees in the city, the children ride the slides, and by 12 o'clock we return home. The table is set in advance and after such a walk the mood is the most New Year's. We buy every year new toy on the tree And of course gifts are waiting for everyone under the tree.

Anastasia: | December 16th, 2017 | 9:09 pm

Daria, thank you very much for the marathon! Thanks to him, the New Year mood appears already in early December. So many cool ideas!
1. We always decorate the Christmas tree with the whole family.
2. On New Year's Eve, we hide gifts for the whole family under the Christmas tree.
3. Cooking goose, Russian salad, cheese salad.
4. At the table we read New Year's predictions.
5. In the first days of January, we go to the cartoon with our family, often it was the Three Bogatyrs.
6. Thanks to Dasha, they started a new tradition: baking gingerbread and making homemade sweets and chocolate sausage.

Elena: | December 16th, 2017 | 4:40 pm

Every year we decorated the pine tree with real sweets and tangerines) And this year, on your advice, we started writing letters to Santa Claus) Since my eye is only 9 months old, we dipped her palms in Finger paint and left prints on the letter to Santa Claus) So everyone wrote the letter!)

Tatiana: | December 16th, 2017 | 3:48 pm

1. The tree must be real

6. new tradition- I draw a board game on the New Year theme) We will play)

Olga: | December 16th, 2017 | 12:22 pm

Our family is young, the child is small, so the traditions are also young:
- we always decorate the Christmas tree all together
- for the coming year we give relatives calendars with common photos
- on New Year's Eve, we write the most cherished wishes for the next year and hang them on the Christmas tree, and then put them in a box with Christmas decorations until next year. Almost everything comes true 😜
- We have slightly altered the tradition with a piggy bank. All year we put the change in the piggy bank, and at the end of the year we transfer the accumulated amount to a special account, where we save money for the construction of our house)))

Olga: | December 16th, 2017 | 11:02 am

Hello, thanks for the marathon! Creates a Christmas mood. And we make dumplings. We invite guests - all relatives. 10-12 people are recruited. We knead the dough, prepare minced meat and sit down to sculpt. Children run, scream, dress up in costumes. Turmoil, laughter, noise, and adults are sculpting. Children periodically connect to the modeling, this creates even more turmoil. Flour flies in all directions, laughter. Then we cook and eat everything!

Irina: | December 16th, 2017 | 10:35 am

I am very glad that I decided to participate in the marathon!!! Thank you very much!!! So many ideas, so many positives! Unfortunately, I don’t always have time to do all the tasks, but I try. Today we will cut snowflakes and decorate windows as a family. Christmas tree always decorate together, it's fun and very cool.

Ludmila: | December 28th, 2016 | 11:55 am

Thank you, Dasha, for the marathon! Everything is somehow done by itself. Everything is washed, cleaned, dressed up, bought. It remains only to prepare and celebrate the New Year. We have a tradition living tree(only we sell pine trees, but it doesn’t matter). And be sure to have a lot of gifts under the Christmas tree with verses-wishes. We open them after 12. We open, we measure, we boast. Last year, they wrote down 12 wishes and hid them. On New Year's Eve we will open, we will read what has come true And again next year we will write down wishes.

Tatiana: | December 23rd, 2016 | 11:30 am

We, as in the famous film, go to the bathhouse on December 31. I cook Olivier and definitely a herring under a fur coat. We also fry barbecue, but it depends on the weather when very coldy or snowstorms have to cook the meat in the oven. On December 31, we also definitely watch the Irony of Fate and, of course, we decorate the Christmas tree, although this year it will probably not always be real, it will probably be artificial. Well, that’s all, you need to choose something else from the article, traditions are great.

Ludmila: | December 23rd, 2016 | 7:33 dp

Daria, thank you very much for the marathon. I enjoy reading your suggestions and assignments. It creates a mood. I want to tell you about one tradition, maybe those who have small children will like it. The son was about three years when we celebrated the new year in new apartment. For the first time we had a real big tree. Thanks to the grandmothers, the son already knew what sweets were and could eat everything he was given in one sitting. And here at work, both my husband and I have gifts for my son. Giving him a gift is scary. I came up with this game. When the Christmas tree was dressed up, I said that it was magical and sweets grew on it. In the morning, the son always ran to the Christmas tree and looked for candy. And they grew up (one or two). If the son did not want to sleep, then I explained that if he did not sleep, then the sweets would not grow. Somehow, when my son had already grown up, I decided that it was not necessary to hang sweets. But the son, supporting the game, asked why, they say, sweets do not grow on the Christmas tree? It was Last year when they were growing up. Maybe they will start growing again when grandchildren appear

Marina: | December 23rd, 2016 | 12:32 am

must-have gifts under the tree that appear at midnight. Loved the idea of a sweet treasure and a happy dumpling. I do this with a pie - a coin for wealth and a bean for happiness)))

Elena: | December 22nd, 2016 | 10:51 am

Thanks everyone for the new ideas. In our childhood, they put a pine tree (they don’t grow spruces there), and now the tradition has begun to put a pine tree instead of a spruce tree (and the aroma is stronger and the needles don’t crumble and pleasant memories of childhood. traditional goose, Olivier and, most importantly, home-made candies from cookies and waffles with some kind of truffles , with beetroot juice - strawberries and sausage made from cookies with nuts, condensed milk and sweet butter: my sons (already having their own children) were completely delighted, it was their childhood, and gifts for the grandchildren under the Christmas tree

Julia: | December 22nd, 2016 | 10:08 am

We order sushi for the new year so as not to cook at all) we buy a new toy every year, on the 1st we go to my mother, where Olivier is waiting for us (including lean). On the 2nd, we walk all day. And during the holidays, be sure to go up the hill and admire the beautiful Moscow. Well, meeting with friends.

Olga S: | December 29th, 2015 | 10:43 am

It has already become a tradition for me to participate in the flash mob “New Year without a stove”
Another family tradition from my childhood passed into mine new family- put gifts under the Christmas tree and unfold on the morning of January 1st.
This year, she started the tradition of making Advent for children, so far only for her son, because. daughter is still young. I write him letters with tasks from Santa Claus. And so that he would be interested in the letter, I replace some words with pictures and then I read the text, and he pronounces the words encrypted by the picture.

Gulmira: | December 29th, 2015 | 6:14 dp

which good ideas! We have a tradition to celebrate the New Year with a lot of fun! There is a tradition where we pull out wishes for ng, also a tradition of the arrival of Santa Claus with gifts, letters!

Asya: | December 28th, 2015 | 1:14 pm

What a lot of great ideas!!!
We haven’t developed any traditions yet)) As a child, we always decorated the Christmas tree all together, we always hung sweets, found gifts under the Christmas tree)) And always at home, as I remember.
I really want to establish my own traditions now! Decorate a Christmas tree (and definitely with sweets too), celebrate at home, write a letter to Santa Claus, New Year's dishes, family viewing New Year's films, family photo, make a collection of Christmas decorations, cut out snowflakes for neighbors, make a box for good deeds and joyful events - I really liked these ideas! Thanks everyone!

Elena: | December 28th, 2015 | 12:34 pm

Thank you very much behind good advice. I will be more experienced next year. Family tradition - family gathering at the New Year's table. A live Christmas tree is a must.

Valeria: | December 28th, 2015 | 7:59 dp

And this year, my husband and I are not going to our parental families, but we will celebrate the three of us (we will put our little son to bed, so almost the two of us). I want to get a beautiful jar or box, where we will add notes with pleasant memories, good deeds and joyful events for the whole next year. And next New Year we will open and re-read everything - remember.

2. For 2 new years we have been playing predictions. Printed cards with predictions: real and comic. Everyone pulls out several cards in a circle. It turned out to be a very entertaining and funny activity :-) And a year later we check what came true.
3. We make wishes, write them down and seal them in an envelope. We'll see in a year.
4. I make native calendars for the next year with a photo of the past year.
5. On January 2 or 3, we go to the premiere of the cartoon with the whole family.

I really want a family photo shoot every year in the snow, but we don’t have snow on NG :-(

Julia: | December 26th, 2014 | 11:29 am

We have traditions: for all my relatives, I make a photo book for the past year with children's photographs. Let's decorate the tree together. Photo together - somehow it didn’t really take root, although I would like to
I want this year: a photo by the Christmas tree, a photo session in outfits, a theater
Everything was bought for the photo session, for the theater (shadow) I found a script, only one hero and decorations were left to cut and make a screen.

Oksana: | December 26th, 2014 | 11:12 am

With the coming!!!

Marina: | December 26th, 2014 | 11:11 am

On January 1, we open a piggy bank, where we put 10 ruble coins all year long and use them to buy a home gift. For several years now, I have been preparing for the holiday with a marathon. For the first time I decorate the house on a large scale, today, for example, I painted the windows. The menu is also traditional and we always celebrate the holiday with the family at home.

Elena: | December 26th, 2014 | 7:16 dp

We do every year paper snowflakes at the windows all together (although dad prefers to watch from the side, but sits with us). And we update the outfit of the Christmas tree with homemade toys. And we meet as it will turn out - it is not always possible to bring everyone together on New Year's Eve.

Valentine: | December 26th, 2014 | 6:50 am

Elena: | December 31st, 2012 | 4:59 pm

we decorate the Christmas tree, although for the last three years it has not been real, but it has always been up to the ceiling, we decorate the house. gifts under the tree.

Olga: | December 29th, 2012 | 10:39 am

We decorated the Christmas tree, now we’ll just decorate the house, we’re doing a snowflake contest, now it’s more difficult, the older the parents, the harder it is for them to become children. we open the door for the New Year under the chimes, and then who will be the first to find their gift under the tree. New will be games with children, since children have just appeared.

Olga.I: | December 27th, 2012 | 6:28 pm

This year they tried to introduce a tradition - to glue gingerbread houses with children. It went off with a bang!!! We do not live in Russia and gifts have to be given when all the children here receive them. New Year, of course, we also celebrate! So, the day before, before the arrival of Santa Claus, we had a small family dinner, and for dessert - decoration gingerbread houses!!! Imagine - the whole family, without exception, took part! I didn't expect it to be so exciting and fun and delicious! All preparatory work I kept it to a minimum - blanks of houses and white marzipan were smoked at IKEA. The day before X hour, a dress rehearsal was held with one of the daughters)))) - I glued the walls and roofs, and she dyed the marzipan red and green colors. We made white chocolate as “cement” for gingerbread - the easiest option. A piece of chocolate is placed in the bag, then all this is in the microwave for 30-45 seconds, then a tiny corner is cut off from the bag - and you can glue it !!! Fast and delicious!!!

Olga: | December 27th, 2012 | 9:09 am

Every year in our family
1) we buy a new toy, the one that the daughter chooses,
2) the whole family decorate the Christmas tree and decorate the house,
3) we write a letter to Santa Claus and send it by paper plane from the bridge of lovers
4) We make dumplings, we wrap cabbage or potatoes in one instead of meat, this dumpling is happy, and the one who gets it too !!!
5) Send postcards to family and friends
6) we organize a walk with a slide, and ice skating
7) We watch the congratulations of the president, open champagne, watch the fireworks in the yard
8) After that, we return home, and there gifts are already waiting under the tree.
9) and also our dad hangs gullivers on the Christmas tree, in which banknotes of different denominations are previously hidden, whoever cuts which one will get 100, 500 or 1000 (the most important prize) rubles.
Our parents did a lot, and we continue their good traditions, some we brought ourselves.

Answer: Thank you! I especially liked the gullivers :)

Anna: | December 27th, 2012 | 8:31 am

Together we decorate the Christmas tree and decorate the house. Under the Christmas tree on the night of January 1, everyone finds gifts. New Year's table and splashes of champagne under the chiming clock - this goes without saying. Fireworks on the street. I want to add notes with desires.

Catherine: | December 27th, 2012 | 7:20 am

Our family is still new - only 2 new years we meet together. There were no special traditions in my family, and neither did my husband. And I really want to have something like my family, I think it's time to start. Here they dressed the Christmas tree together and decorated the apartment.
My girlfriend has a tradition, early in the morning on December 31, they gather with their whole family with friends in the forest near a living Christmas tree, decorate it and celebrate the new year, see off the old one.

Maria: | December 27th, 2012 | 6:30 am

And for now, we are only decorating the Christmas tree, but always alive, so that there is a smell of the New Year.
I also want to make an album where every year I will make handprints of my daughters (the oldest is 2.9 years old, the youngest is 3 months old). It will be interesting to see how they grow in a year.
nothing new came to mind.

New Years is one of my favorites and bright holidays. My family always celebrates it in a big way. In early December, my dad and I buy a Christmas tree. We choose the tallest and fluffiest spruce. We put it at home. The house is filled with the smell of pine needles. Then we get Christmas decorations. I decorate the tree myself. First I hang Christmas decorations, then a garland and, finally, a star on top. Sometimes my mother and I make Christmas decorations with our own hands. We color them ourselves. And we also hang them on our Christmas tree. Under the Christmas tree I put Santa Claus and the Snow Maiden. Spruce is a harbinger of an imminent holiday. Every evening I turn on the garland and we look at the funny lights.

On December 31, my mother and I set the table. We prepare everyone's favorite dishes: for dad - herring under a fur coat, for mom - Olivier salad, and for me - rolls. There must be tangerines and pineapple on the table. Mom also prepares a new signature dish every New Year. This year it was a goose with apples. We put candles on the table. We put small gifts under the Christmas tree. Everyone will get something interesting. Also, what a holiday without guests. Our friends, grandparents come to us and we all celebrate the New Year together. Be sure to listen to congratulations from our president and make wishes to the chiming clock. I hope mine comes true. In my childhood, when all my relatives gathered, including grandparents, my aunt with her family and my own uncle with his family, we children were asked to read a poem, sing a song, play the piano or dance. Now that we have grown up, this is no longer the case.

After the chimes strike 12 o'clock, we run outside and set off fireworks. On the streets, people congratulate each other on the New Year and wish each other health, happiness, and success.

We are very happy with the gifts, and especially my brother. Santa Claus looks like a fabulous alpha, and the Snow Maiden looks like an enchanted fairy, who was bewitched by an evil wizard. The Snow Maiden always looks sadly somewhere to the side, and we sing a song to her and see a round dance around the Christmas tree. After that, the Snow Maiden noticeably cheers up. My brother loves the deeds of frost, but I like snow maidens. She looks like a Barbie doll and is very thin. For this New Year, we gave her a homemade card and beads.

For 3, 4, 5 classes

New Year is my favorite holiday. I always look forward to it - I even count the days. Since November. And it’s so good that Christmas trees are already being set up around, decorating everything.

Everyone in our family also loves this holiday. Mom always starts a general cleaning on New Year's Eve. It lasts almost a week. Mom says that you need to enter the new year without unnecessary things, garbage, clean and tidy. I also clean my room. But I like it more when, after cleaning, we hang garlands, put up our beautiful silver Christmas tree. We have so many toys! I like to hang them differently every year.

Dad brings a lot of goodies. For example, sweets, soda, sausage. Mom cooks meat with cheese or stuffed chicken ... I often help her. I also love to make gifts with my own hands. We are also taught to make crafts at school, and you can also look at the "recipe" on the Internet.

We take the holidays seriously. Even sometimes too much. That is, something suddenly does not work out as you want, and the parents begin to get drunk. This is what I don't like! I then tell them that the most important thing is the New Year, and not some little things about its preparation. And they say I'm so smart, well done.

Before the New Year - in the evening we usually go with dad to the Christmas tree in the center. We have such a tradition. After we rest at home, we even go to bed. But I can't sleep, of course. I'm dreaming! And then we follow old year at eleven o'clock. We eat delicious salads with mayonnaise, herring under a fur coat. And then the chimes strike, everyone makes wishes. Clink of glasses! My parents drink their tasteless champagne and I drink their sugary soda. And I'm going to sleep so that the morning will be faster. And gifts in the morning! And almost immediately tea with sandwiches and cake and sweets! During the day we also walk. Everything is so beautiful around!

Composition on the topic How I spent the New Year Grade 3

New Year is a time of miracles. This holiday is loved by both adults and children.

We, schoolchildren, love the New Year very much. Not only because it is one of the main holidays of the year, but more because of the very atmosphere of the holiday. I like how our school celebrates this holiday. First, all students primary school they gather in the assembly hall, where high school students show them a performance in turn (in parallel). This presentation is Christmas story, with various classic characters: Santa Claus, Snow Maiden, bunnies, chanterelles and so on. After that, we went to the gym, where there was an elegant Christmas tree. All the guys were already in their festive costumes. Santa Claus came to us with the Snow Maiden, we danced round dances, played interesting games, it was a lot of fun. Having played enough, all the classes went to their offices, where the parents had already prepared everything for the festive tea party.

The next day after the "school tree" came the holiday itself - the New Year. In the morning, under our Christmas tree, I found a beautiful box in which there was a large typewriter. I really liked her, and I played with her all day. In the evening, before the chimes, my parents and I went to the main square of the city, where there were a lot of people. People were cheerful, burned Bengal fires, congratulated each other. And when the clock struck exactly twelve times, we were deafened by the festive fireworks.

Definitely, the New Year is a special holiday, when a sense of miracle is in the air.

The composition of Rodion Raskolnikov and Sonya Marmeladova in the novel Crime and Punishment by Dostoevsky
The novel by F. M. Dostoevsky “Crime and Punishment” is a kind of opposition. But, as you know, opposition and contradiction can manifest itself in different situations.

And native, etc. Others are unique to a particular culture. Who doesn't know that on New Year's Eve the Italians throw old things out the window, the Japanese ring the bells, and the British put children's gifts in stockings? But perhaps the most beloved by us are family traditions. It turns out a kind of paradox: on a holiday associated with renewal, the expectation of something new, we wish each other "new happiness", "new luck", "new friends", and the holiday itself has long been overgrown with traditions, that is, unchanged, repeating every year customs and rituals.

There is a belief that the New Year should be celebrated in new underwear, then the disease will not stick. We buy panties, T-shirts, socks, tights for all family members - everything that is "closer to the body." This is a good reason to buy something special, something that you will not allow yourself at another time.

In fact, this paradox is imaginary. On the one hand, the New Year's holiday is associated with the concept of "time", on the other hand, with childhood, so one cannot do without following traditions. After all family customs connect people with the past. Children, even very young, are very fond of observing traditions, even the most insignificant, for example, a ritual of putting to bed or a family Sunday walk in the park.

Family values

Family traditions bring together all relatives, makes the family a family, and not just a community of relatives by blood. Household customs and rituals can become a kind of inoculation against the separation of children from their parents, their mutual misunderstanding. And the celebration of the New Year is perfect for this purpose!

You can make it a tradition to create a beautiful New Year's composition under the tree or coffee table: lay out "drifts" of cotton wool, make trees from twigs, arrange small Christmas trees, figures of Santa Claus, Snow Maiden, forest animals, toy houses.

Any adult turns into a child at the moment when he crawls under the tree for his gift or dresses up in a costume for a home performance. And children (today's adults and those who returned to the country of childhood) will always find a common language.
