Polish Christmas

We have been learning about Christmas in Poland this week. Hannah’s Mum (a.m.) and Sara’s Mum (p.m.) have talked to us about the traditions in their country at Christmas time. We learned about putting some hay under the tablecloth, about the twelve dishes at their meal, the empty place at their table and that Santa visits Poland too. We were even able to taste the nativity wafers that they have on Christmas Eve.   

Tasting a nativity wafer.

It was interesting to find out that much about Christmas in Poland is similar to Scotland but that there are also several important differences. Thank you so much to both Hannah and Sara’s Mum for helping us to learn about their culture.   

Lots of us tried the nativity wafer.

  1. This sounds really interesting, wish I had been there myself! So good to know that the kids are learning about other traditions at nursery.

  2. It was really interesting to hear about other traditions. Hannah’s Mum hopes to talk to the children at Easter time about traditions in Poland so you are very welcome to join in then if you would like to.
