1st of March - Baba Marta (Abuela Marta) in Bulgaria – she
brings spring weather
We all hope Baba Marta is in a good mood. If not – the weather is bad!
Martenitsa is a symbol of the coming spring. It protects us from
all bad things
Everybody wears Martenitsa in Bulgaria. It is a very old tradition.
Red – symbol of blood, life
White – happiness,
purity
Wear martenitsa until you see a stork or a swallow …
…then we put our martenitsa on a blooming tree or under a stone to
predict what will be the year like.
We make Martenitsi at home and we give
them to friendsLet’s make martenici!
In our library, at break time…
Plamena organized a workshop to explain us this Bulgarian tradition.
We learned how to make these bracelets and got one.
Do you want yours?
You can try, it’s very easy.
