New Years Eve Tradition's🎍🥳
Hello Mito Amity students and family!
I hope everyone had an enjoyable Christmas! New Year`s Eve is coming up soon, so today`s post will be about different New Year`s Eve traditions from around the world.
The first tradition is from Spain: eating 12 grapes at midnight! If you eat one grape in time with each chime of the clock at midnight, you will then be rewarded with luck and happiness in the coming year.
The second tradition is from Denmark: smashing old plates and glasses against the doors of their family and friends. They believe that this will banish away any bad spirits!
The third tradition is from the Philippines: wearing and displaying round shapes everywhere. Round shapes symbolize prosperity, so people will wear polka dots on their clothes and display piles of rounded fruit on their dining tables for good luck!
The fourth tradition is from Brazil and other Central and South American countries: wearing special underwear! The color of the underwear you have on during New Year`s Eve will bring you luck in a certain area. For example, red underwear attracts love, while yellow attracts money.
The fifth and last tradition is from Greece: hanging onions on the front door of your home as a symbol of rebirth. Parents will even wake their children on the morning of New Year`s day by tapping them on the head with an onion.
I hope everyone enjoyed reading about different New Year`s Eve traditions from around the world! What traditions are done for the New Year in Japan? Let us know in your next Amity lesson!
Sincerely,
