Happy New Year from Bulgaria


The children hold in their hands decorated stick called surovaknitsa. Young children in Bulgaria visit their relatives on 1th January. The children bless the New Year by gently patting them on the back for health. We wish you a successful New year - we surovakame you ( we gently patting you on the back for health) with this song.

Dear friend, in Romania we have the same tradition, called SORCOVA.
Children say it on the 1st January too. I am going to record my students in order to show it to you. I'm glad that there are similarities between our traditions. :)
