Christmas is celebrated in Russia according to Russian Orthodox Church calendar - on 7 January. During this time people send warm greetings to each other, wishing good health, happiness and great successes. Unlike it is the case in Western countries, Russia does not celebrate Christmas as widely as they do the New Year's Day. In Russia, New Year's Day is a national holiday. Children do not go to school because they have winter holidays at that time. People do not work on that day. Many people celebrate New Year's Eve at home; they organize a party for members of the family or for their friends. A Christmas tree stands in every house at Christmas and sometimes Grandfather Frost and the Snow Maiden visit people's homes.
