Perhaps many people have heard about Halloween, Mother's Day, St. Valentine's Day, which have long been celebrated not only in the UK, but also far beyond its borders. However, not everyone knows about such an interesting and" delicious " holiday as Apple Day, which is celebrated annually on October 21 in Britain.

History of occurrence

Even in ancient times, the first apple trees were brought to the island of foggy Albion by the Romans. After that, they began to actively grow this crop and bring out new varieties. Now it is quite difficult to imagine the UK without beautiful flowering apple trees and other orchards.

Apple Day

However, the creation of the European Union opened the English market to the agricultural products of European countries, and the demand for local apples declined sharply. It was then that, at the initiative of the English charity organization "Common Ground", back in 1990, Apple Day was first organized in the UK. And although the holiday received an "apple" name, its goal is to support all domestic products of garden agriculture. The fruit itself has become a kind of symbol of the diversity of all aspects of the world and proof that a person is able to independently influence his fate (the biblical Eve and the "forbidden fruit").

How is Apple Day celebrated in the UK?

Every year, folk festivals are organized with a thematic apple bias and elements of the fair. Perhaps this is the only day of the year when not only the citizens of the country, but also any guest of the foggy Albion has a unique opportunity to try more than 1,200 different varieties of apples, most of which can not be bought in stores.

apple day in the uk

Also on the Apple Day holiday, everyone can buy seedlings of rare varieties to grow them in their own garden or on the house plot. Novice amateur gardeners will be able to get free advice on their questions from leading experts-apple growers.

On Apple Day, chefs who want to demonstrate their culinary skills come to the places of large fair festivals. And then vacationers have the opportunity to try dozens of different dishes from apples, both hot and cold. Especially lucky ones can even get hold of a couple of interesting recipes, which will then surprise their friends. You can also participate in various interesting contests: shooting arrows at apples or peeling an apple (so that the peeled peel is as long as possible).

World Apple Day

And although officially such a holiday does not exist, but the "apple mania" from the subjects of the English crown was successfully picked up by the residents of the United States of America. Only they celebrate Apple Day on February 20.

In the Russian Federation, Ukraine and other Slavic countries, Harvest Day is celebrated annually, which is quite similar to the British holiday. On this day, it is customary to organize fairs, where you can very profitably buy agricultural products and participate in fun contests.

Apple Day-scenario for school and preschool institutions

The purpose of this theatrical production: to introduce children to the world holiday Apple Day, to create an atmosphere of good mood and joy, to instill interest in group classes.

The course of the event: the buffoon Petrushka runs out to a cheerful tune (it is better if he is a few years older than the children of the target audience). The music gradually fades away.

Parsley:

Ding-dong-dong! Ding-dong-dong!

How beautiful everything is!

You guys are awesome!

< p>Jokes, games, there is for you!

Guess the riddle,

In it, the answer will be sweet.

"I "at the beginning," o "at the end,

And hanging on a tree.

What is it, children?

Which one of you will answer now?

(The children answer: "Apple").

Punch:

Well done, girls,

Well done and boys.

And let's get together

Let's call the apples!

(Children call: "Apples! Apples!", two children run out in apple costumes).

1 bullseye:

We were hanging on the apple tree

And under the sun tanned,

Sweet juice poured,

Wow, you did a great job!

2 bullseye:

Everyone loves us-everyone in the world:

And parents, and children.

Only autumn on the threshold-

From the branch we are in the basket skok!

1 bullseye:

We sang together on the branch,

And now you need to warm up,

In a circle rather become

And smile at each other.

(All the children stand in a circle.)

2 bullseye:

Don't yawn on the sides,

And repeat after us.

We will plant an apple tree with you -

We'll pluck the harvest for Mom!

1. How high will our apple tree be? Show me! (All the kids reach up with their hands).

2. An apple tree can be grown from a seed, only for this it needs to be planted in the ground! (Everyone squats several times).

3. Well done! Now you need to go to the well for water! (Everyone goes round in a circle).

4. Now you need to turn the well gate to get water! (Make circular movements with the right and then with the left hand).

5. Now our apple tree needs to be watered! (Make torso tilts forward).

6. Well, at first our tree was small-small (we all need to sit down), and now it's growing higher and higher! (They gradually stand up and stretch their arms up).

7. Our apple tree has grown so strong. The wind blows, but it doesn't break! (Swing right and left).

8. Finally, our hard work paid off, and the apples are ripe in our garden. Let's jump higher to pluck them from the branches! (the Jump).

Punch: What good fellows you all are! Such nice helpers grow up! Everyone deserves a delicious reward for their work! (Takes a bag of apples and distributes them to each child).
