Russian students bring sweets to school on their birthday. They hand them out to their classmates. It seems unusual that on your birthday you bring treats to other people, but that's what Russian people do. There is another birthday tradition in Russia.

Birthday children get their ears pulled. The amount of pulls depends on how old they are: a pull for each year they live.
