CHRISTMAS CELEBRATIONS
Christmas is the most popular family holiday in the world. By 24 December everything is ready for
Christmas. People send greeting cards and decorate a Christmas tree. On the Christmas tree you can
find long, colourful chains and sparkling trinkets. There is a big yellow star on top. Under the tree you can
find a lot of great presents, but they are only for good children.
At midnight many people go to church to attend the midnight mass. In England children hang up a
Christmas stocking for presents. They believe that Santa Clause arrives in a sledge drawn by the reindeers.
He enters every house through the chimney. The most popular reindeer is the red-nosed reindeer called
Rudolph. All children love Rudolph and sing songs about him.
In Poland when the first star appears in the sky, the family starts Christmas Eve dinner. In the USA the
most popular Christmas meal is roast turkey and Christmas pudding. After Christmas dinner the whole
family gathers together to sing Christmas carols and tell jokes.

WHITE CHRISTMAS
I'm dreaming of a White Christmas
Just like the ones I used to know
Where the treetops glisten
and children listen
To hear sleigh bells in the snow.
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white.
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
With every Christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright
And may all your Christmases be white.
