Czech folklore

Czech folklore is the stories and traditions that people in the Czech Republic have been passing down from generation to generation for a long, long time, just like how your family might have special stories or ways of doing things that have been kept in the family for years.

These stories might be about magical creatures like witches, speaking animals, and giants. They might also be about historical events, like battles or famous leaders, or about everyday things like farming or cooking.

Some Czech folklore traditions include wearing masks or costumes during festivals, singing special songs, and dancing special dances.

Just like how you might have a favorite bedtime story that you ask your parents to read every night, Czech people have their own favorite stories and traditions that they like to share with their families and friends.
