25th December is the day when many people are travelling home to be with their families on Christmas day. There are a lot of traditions connected with Christmas,but ,perhaps, the most important one is giving of presents. Family members wrap up their gifts and leave the at the bottom of the Christmas tree to be found on Christmas morning. Children leave a long sock or stocking at the end of their bedon Christmas Eve,24th December,hoping that Father Christmas will come down the chimney during the night and bring them small presents,fruit and nuts. At some time on Christmas Day the family will sit down to a big turkey dinner followed by Christmas pudding. They will probably pull a cracker with another member of the family. it will make a loud crack and a coloured hat,small toy and joke will fall out!
New Year my favourite holiday.It's like fairy taile for me.We begin preparing for the celebration in advance.We have a lot of things to do before this holiday! At first we clean the house, decorate the Cristmas tree with wonderful decorations and garlands/ My mother always devotes much time to preparing for the holiday table mostly impressive salads baked potato jelly and other dishs.After twelve o'clock we open champange and have enjoyable time together.After that on the street begins fireworkthat can last an hour. New Year is a bright holiday for the whole family.
