Christmas is the biggest festival in the western
world, which people all over the Christian countries celebrate. It is
on the 25th day of each December. Christians consider it as the
birthday of Jesus Christ. But now many customs and habits are beyond
religious meaning, The Christmas season begins five or six weeks before
the exact holiday. There is always a shopping boom during this period.
So it's really a happy season for shop owners.

Christmas Day
Christmas Day falls on the twenty-fifth of December. It is a very
happy day for many boys and girls . Before the term ends in some
schools , the children act a nativity or “birth” play, showing how
Jesus was born in a stable. On
the twenty-fourth of December, all children are very excited. Usually
they are sent to bed early so that their parents can get the presents
ready. The younger children think that Father Christmas will come down
the chimney or fireplace , so they hang up a sock for him to put
presents in. The greedy ones even hang up a pillow-case or a sack to
try to get more presents. Later that night, Father or Mother will put
presents in the sock, and leave others at the side of the bed.
On
Christmas morning, the children wake up very early. Some even turn on
the light at two o'clock, and most of them are awake by six o'clock
although it is not light in England for another hour or two at this
time of the year.Children look for their presents , and the young ones
play while the dinner is prepared. At about one o'clock in the
afternoon, the Christmas dinner is brought in . The turkey or chicken
is quickly eaten . Children search in their Christmas pudding for new
coins which are hidden in it . The rest of the day is full of games and
eating until the happiest of all Christmas hollidays comes to an end.
