How To Explain St. Patrick's Day


First of all St. Patrick's Day is celebrated on March 17. It is basically a religious feast day and the rememberance of his death in the fifth century. This holiday has been celebrated for more than a 1000 years. Also this holiday falls during the the religious season known as Lent. During Lent, there are days where you have to go full days without eating food. Also there are days where we do not have to eat meat for a day. In St. Patrick's Day, all of this things we can not do during Lent, we are able to do on this day. Also the traditional meal for this holiday are Irish bacon and cabbage. Also in St. Patrick's Day we have to wear green, and go to church in the morning and then we can celebrate it in the afternoon.
