American holidays are distinguished by their scale and characteristic flavor. And it’s clear why. Any American holiday is an important event in the life of every person for whom English is considered their native language. Americans love and honor their holidays very much. And in order to better feel the language environment when learning English, it is very important to plunge into the cultural life of the country of the language being studied, and National holidays- the most suitable occasion for a more detailed acquaintance with the culture, customs and traditions of the English-speaking population of the earth. The more you know about the culture of the country of the language you are learning, the easier it becomes to learn it. Based on this, I invite you, dear readers of the site, to introduce your children to the customs, traditions and holidays of the English-speaking population of the planet.

Children of preschool and primary school age most often master English language only in an artificially created language environment, and accordingly have the opportunity to listen and actively use English only in class, in communication with teachers, parents or other children. And if you decide to take a serious approach to teaching your child English, then you should pay special attention to the material proposed in this section and create a foreign language language space that will contribute to the launch of the child’s natural speech mechanisms.

Only in young children these mechanisms are still very flexible and plastic, therefore, in the conditions of the correct organization of the language learning environment, the formation of English speech occurs faster and more efficiently, and the child’s speech skills themselves become stronger and more stable. The language environment you create will be of a directly developmental nature; accordingly, the child will not only learn to speak English, pronouncing learned words and expressions, but also learn to live in a different, new cultural space.

AND American holidays best help to create this environment. After all, we all know how much children love holidays, with what impatience they await the approach of the New Year and their birthday. These trembling moments of anticipation of the holiday are familiar only to them - children, so it is important during this age period to introduce the child to the holidays of English-speaking countries, by comparing them with the holidays of their native country. Ask your child to list the holidays that he knows, and then tell him in detail about similar American holidays, conducting a comparative analysis of which of them are celebrated only in our country, which are celebrated only in America, and which are celebrated in both countries.

Thanks to the comparative analysis and introductory stories, you will allow the child to better understand the culture of the people of English-speaking countries, and create a developmental, cultural and educational language environment, which will undoubtedly improve the child’s perception of the English language and speed up the learning process.

So, meet American holidays:
