Масленица

This is very important celebration as a gap between Winter and Spring which came from ancient times.
During the Meslenica week people celebrating end of Winter, they play with the snow, build snow forts,  sledding, skating, visiting friend and all week along they are cooking pan cakes! They eat pan cakes with butter, jam, honey, sour cream....why pan cakes? Because pan cake is round and yellow as a sun, which gives warm and life everyone and everything on our Planet!
Finally people are making a Winter scarecrow and burn it on Sunday...This is really end of Winter !

Hurray!





 

 
As a part of our March break we decided to make a Winter scare crow! Thanks Maria, I got that idea from her Web site here . And we as a crazy started to make puppets!
