New Year is a special holiday, which is loved and cherished by nearly every child in the world. Children are especially keen on this day as they get extra attention from the grown-ups and from Ded Moroz, of course. Each year I celebrate the beginning of the year with my family. It is well-known that New Year and Christmas are family-type holidays. That’s why we all gather at home in the evening for the festive meal. As the clock strikes twelve, grown-ups toast with a glass of champagne to the coming year. Then we leave the house and go straight towards the square to watch the colorful fireworks. The night of New Year is full of exciting developments. I especially like when there is snow outside, but that doesn’t happen every year in our region.
