What month is it now?

Now children may
Go out of doors,
Without their coats,
To candy stores,

The apple branches
And the pear
May float their blossoms
Through the air,

And Daddy may
Get out his hoe
To plant tomatoes
In a row,

And, afterwards,
May lazily
Look at some baseball
On TV.
John Updike

What festivals do we celebrate in May?

May Day
We celebrate May Day
On the first of May.

We celebrate the return of spring.
Plants start to grow.

Farmers planted seeds and now they have some rest.

People are happy and they dance and sing.

People dance around May Pole or May tree.
They hold colourful ribbons.

There is a king and a queen.

People present each other
baskets with flowers.

Easter in May
We celebrate Easter in Russia
On the second of May.

Do you like eggs?

Easter bunny soft and white
Hopping quickly out of sight.
Thank you for the eggs you bring
At Easter time to welcome spring.
