Maslenitsa is the holiday when Russians say “goodbye” to winter and welcome spring. It lasts for a week before Lent. People celebrate it at the end of February or at the beginning of March.

It’s time of singing, dancing and fun. People dress up, invite their friends, their nearest and dearest to see each other.

People go for sleigh rides, go sledging and play in the snow.

People have snow fights, burn bonfires, have a tug-of-war in the snow and lots more.

There’s a lot to eat, too – especially blinis (or pancakes). You can eat them with sour cream, fish, caviar or butter, sugar, honey.

People in Russia make a straw doll of “Lady Maslenitsa”, who is dressed in special clothes.

On Sunday evening, they burn Lady Maslenitsa on a big bonfire. The spring festival is over and Lent begins.
