Giving gifts is in memory of those gifts that the eastern wise men brought to the Christ Child. The poor were not forgotten either. In ancient times, on Christmastide, even tsars disguised as commoners visited and gave alms to prisoners. An odd number was being prepared, the main of which was kutia. Sbiten, walnut cookies, poppy seeds, balls of sweet crumbs, pancakes and oatmeal jelly were placed on the table. At this time, a cross-shaped ice-hole was cut through the frozen water bodies and decorated with ice crystals, ribbons and wooden patterns. For a long time, the Slavs had a tradition of caroling during Christmas time: putting on masks and going from house to house with songs and dances. Carols from the owners of ceremonial food and expressed their good wishes.

Previously, the Church celebrated Christmas and Epiphany on the same day. In the 4th century, the two holidays were separated and a special holiday period was established between them. It was he who received the name Svyatki. At this time, the Church of the people rejoice at the birth of Christ.
By tradition, in the first days of the festival, it is customary to visit acquaintances, relatives, friends. Giving gifts is in memory of those gifts that the eastern wise men brought to the Christ Child. The poor were not forgotten either. In ancient times, on Christmastide, even tsars disguised as commoners visited and gave alms to prisoners.
The central event of the Christmas celebrations was a family meal. An odd number was being prepared, the main of which was kutia. Sbiten, walnut cookies, poppy seeds, balls of sweet crumbs, pancakes and oatmeal jelly were placed on the table.
The last days of Christmastide were devoted to preparing for another important holiday – the Baptism of the Lord. At this time, a cross-shaped ice-hole was cut through the frozen water bodies and decorated with ice crystals, ribbons and wooden patterns.
Despite the fact that Christmastide is a Christian holiday, many pagan traditions have mingled with it. For a long time, the Slavs had a tradition of caroling during Christmas time: putting on masks and going from house to house with songs and dances. Carols from the owners of ceremonial food and expressed their good wishes.
