MY FAVOURITE HOLIDAYS

(Part I)

HI! My name’s Nick. I want to tell you how I usually celebrate my two favourite holidays.

You know that on January 1 we celebrate New Year’s Day. And on January 7 all Ukrainian people have Christmas.

January, which derives its name from Janus, the Roman God of beginnings, endings, openings and closings, symbolizes leaving old for the new. No wonder that people celebrate New Year’s Day on January 1. The type of its celebration vanes very much according to the local customs, family traditions and personal taste.

I like New Year because I always have a nice big New Year Tree in the living room. My father and I decorate it with different toys, flags, balls and many bright lights. On that day we have a party at school We sing songs, recite poems and dance around the New Year Tree.
