A fairly popular holiday in Russia is Maslenitsa. Shrovetide once a year on 1 March. On this day, all people in Russia bake pancakes and burn a scarecrow. Yes, yes, that's right, that's how winter turns out. We seem to heat it up, and it becomes spring. The schools usually hold excursions and holidays. Also, most friends and relatives call someone for pancakes.
здесь говорится про Масленицу, что в этот праздник все пекут блины и т.д.
There are many national holidays in Russia, when people all over the country do not work and have special celebrations. The major holidays are: New Year's Day, Women's Day, May Day, Victory Day, and Independence Day.
The first holiday of the year is New Year's Day. People see the new year in at midnight on the 31st of December. They greet the new year with champagne and listen to the Kremlin chimes beating 12 o'clock.
There are lots of New Year traditions in Russia. In every home there is a New Year tree glittering with coloured lights and decorations. Children always wait for Father Frost to come and give them a present. Many people consider New Year's Day to be a family holiday. But the young prefer to have New Year parties of their own.
