Now something about next holidays celebrated in the U.S.A. I have to say that each state established its own legal holidays. So people celebrate the federal legal holidays and also their own holidays.
There are many traditional holidays, observed by a large number of Americans, which are also neither legal nor official. Among them are Valentine’s Day, St.Patrick’s Day, Mother’s Day and Halloween.
Halloween comes every October 31st, the evening before All-Saints Day. Halloween means „holy evening“ and it is a holiday especially for children. Children pick large orange pumpkins then they cut faces in the pumpkins and they put lights inside. These lights are called „jack-o’laterns“ which means „Jack of the latern“. The children also put on strange masks and custumes. Some of them paint their faces to look like monsters. They carry boxes or bags from house to house and the adults put a treat-money or candy in their bags.
Perhaps the two „most American“ of the holidays are the July 4th – Independence Day – and Thanksgiving. Independence Day is like a big, nationwide birthday party. It is a party that takes peace in neighborhoods, on beaches or in parks throughout the country. Some towns and cities have parades with bands and flags. The nation’s birthday is also nation’s gratest annual summer party. Every fourth Thursday in November Thanksgiving Day is celebrated in whole the U.S.A. in order to cemmemorate the arrival of a small group of new colonists to Plymouth in America. It’s a day of the year when whole the family gets together.Traditional foods are prepared for the feast – turkey or ham, cranberry sauce and corn dishes, breads and rolls and pumpkin pie.
Other holidays are: Martin Luther’s King Birthday, Memorial Day, Labor Day, Columbus Day etc.
