We'like to share the old song about them:
Hot cross buns, hot cross buns,

Give them to your sons,
One a penny, two a penny,

Easter Drawings

Dear, friends!
Do you know that the word "Easter" comes from "Eostre", the old name for the goddess of spring? On Easter Sunday, people give chocolate Easter eggs as presents. This tradition started in Europe in the early nineteenth century and came to Britain in the 1870s. Some mothers and fathers tell their children that the Easter Rabbit brings the eggs and hides them in the garden, and the children must go outside and look for them.
This a small part of the different stories about Easter. We'd like to share the video and the works of our children. Hope that you will like it.
Best wishes for a Happy Easter!
Many hugs and kisses, Reny, Darina and pupils

April Fools' Day

Dear, friends!
Today is April Fools' Day! In Bulgaria we celebrate this holiday with many jokes, smiles and games!
"The earliest recorded association between April 1 and foolishness can be found in Chaucer's Canterbury Tales (1392). April Fools' Day is celebrated in different countries around the world on the April 1 of every year. Sometimes referred to as All Fools' Day, April 1 is not a national holiday, but is widely recognized and celebrated as a day where many people play all kinds of jokes and foolishness. The day is marked by the commission of good humoured or funny jokes, hoaxes, and other practical jokes of varying sophistication on friends, family members, teachers, neighbors, work associates, etc./Wikipedia/"
