1. Christmas is a holiday when people
get together with family.
People give presents to each
other or send cards wishing
each other a merry Christmas.
At Christmas, people sing
carols to get into the Christmas spirit. As
well, people decorate
Christmas trees and put up lights
around the house. A common Christmas dinner is turkey. There are also lots of baked goodies for the kids. Christmas begins on the day
before Christmas, or Christmas Eve and continues until Boxing Day, when many people go
shopping for sales.
2. Santa Claus is an old man with a white beard that lives at the North Pole. Children sit on
Santa’s lap and tell him what
they want for Christmas. Santa checks
his list to see if the children have been naughty
or nice. If the children are
bad Santa brings them coal.
If the children are good Santa brings them toys.
The toys are made in Santa’s workshop
by elves. Santa travels
around the world in his sleigh,
which is pulled by flying reindeer.
When he stops at a house, he goes down the chimney
and puts presents under the
tree and then he fills the
stockings.
