Every year on the Holy Thursday of the Easter, Christian people paint eggs red.

The red color symbolizes the blood and the sacrifice of Jesus Christ.

ome people use different colors.

After the Resurrection, Christians crack the red eggs and they eat them.

GREEK HABITS AND CUSTOMS

In Greece we have many habits and customs which are different from the habits and customs of all the other countries of the world.

During the Easter holidays, here in Greece, we have a habit of painting the eggs red. Then we take the red eggs and we try to crack the eggs together. This is called “egg fight” or like we call it here in Greece “tsougrisma”!

Another custom that we have here in Greece is the Carnival. During the Carnival, we wear many different costumes and we dress up as animal, movie characters, cartoons and many others. I love dressing up as pirate of Caribbean.

Also, at Christmas, here in Greece, children sing the Christmas carols in the streets. Children love this custom because they make a lot of money and they eat many chocolate treats.

In the end, I think that Greek habits and customs are very special and I love all of them.
