For most people, at the mention of the winter holidays, memories of the New Year and Christmas immediately pop up in their heads. But these are far from all the holidays that are celebrated in winter. World Snow Day is a funny holiday that has appeared recently.
The idea of creating a snow festival belongs to the International Ski Federation, which is why many have called it Winter Sports Day. The tradition of celebrating this day appeared only in 2012, but everyone readily picked it up. After all, adults and children adore winter precisely because of the natural phenomenon in the form of snow!
Today's youth is rather pessimistic about life, and minor troubles are even acute. The organizers of World Snow Day believe that solemn winter events help future adults to overcome this barrier, stay in childhood, getting an unforgettable experience from ordinary snow!
The organizers of the holiday every year organize various sports competitions on skating, skiing, snowboarding on the penultimate Sunday of January. Naturally, great attention is paid to attracting children to this action. Such a holiday is aimed at instilling in people a love of a healthy lifestyle from an early age. With World Snow Day, young people understand that competition is not something cruel, where you have to fight to win. Competition can be turned into entertainment! By the way, if you are not friends with skates or snowboards, then you can just play snowmen out of the snow, throw snowballs, frolic with friends in the fresh air.
It is worth noting that the first International Snow Festival was not held everywhere in Russia, but only in certain regions. Several ski resorts took part in it. But all the same, the holiday was wonderful - with festivities, sports, carnivals. Residents of Magnitogorsk want to set a record in 2015 - to roll the largest snowball by world standards. Do not miss the opportunity to take part in such a fun action, and if snow day is not celebrated in your city, why not create a tradition to celebrate a new winter holiday?
