Ivana Kupala Game
Ukrainian people have many games.
I want to tell you about the game at Ivana Kupala night on the 7th of July.
It is a very old tradition.
All people sing Ukrainian songs and dance. Girls pick up flowers and put
them on the surface on the river and if the flowers go down the river -
the girls will marry and if the flowers go back to the girls that girl
won't marry soon. The second part of Kupala game is jumping above the fire.
It is dangerous but people like this game.
This tradition is very popular
in all Ukrainian villages. (Tatiana Turos. Computer graphics: Tatiana Turos
