Kurentovanje

Kurentovanje is a special celebration that happens in Slovenia. People dress up in really cool costumes that look like big, fuzzy creatures called Kurenti. These costumes have big furry coats, a lot of colorful ribbons, and lots of bells that make noise when they move around.

During this festival, people parade through the streets, dance, and make a lot of noise to scare away winter and bring in the spring. It is like a big party where everyone feels happy and excited.

People also eat a lot of delicious food and drink special drinks. They also have games and competitions, like who can throw a Kurenti mask the farthest.

Kurentovanje is a fun celebration that happens every year in Slovenia, and it is a time when people come together to have fun and welcome in the springtime.
