Customs in Five Countries
Country 1:
Australian people celebrate the New Year on January 1. This day is a public holiday and many people have picnics and camp out on the beach. They have parties that start on December 31 and at midnight they start to make noise with whistles and rattles, car horns and church bells to ring in the New Year. New Year is a day for outdoor activities such as rodeos, picnic races and surf carnivals.
Country 2:
In British the custom of first footing is practiced. The first male visitor to the house after midnight is usually to bring good luck. Usually they bring a gift like money, bread or coal, which is done to ensure the family will have plenty of these things all the year to come. The first person must not be blond, red-haired, or a woman as these people are supposed bad luck.
Country 3:
The people in Italy prepare for the New Year festival which is known as January Kalends by decorating their houses with lights and greenery. The festival lasts for three days. During this time they hold feasts and exchange gifts that were carefully chosen for their luck-bringing properties, such as sweets or honey to ensure sweetness and peace. Gold, silver or money for prosperity. Lamps for a year filled with light.
Country 4:
January 1st is an important date in Greece because it is not only the first day of the New Year but it is also St. Basil’s day. St. Basil was one of the forefathers of the Greek Orthodox Church. Greek New Year’s day to many is still September 1. It is this date that is the start of the Greek sowing season, a time of hope and promise. To start the new year off right farmers’ families take plates of seeds to church for the priest to bless.
Country 5:
When the clock strikes midnight the Spanish eat 12 grapes one with every toll to bring good luck for 12 months for the New Year. Sometimes the grapes are washed down with wine. Theater productions and movies are interrupted to carry this custom.
