In the west, the Christmas is equivalent to our Chinese Spring Festival, many people think Christmas is the most wonderful time of the year. I think you are addicted to the enjoy of the holiday, the Christmas atmosphere is spread all over the place.
A few days before Christmas, Americans begin to clean their own house, sell things that don’t need through the stalls, and then buy some important thing, the average spends of American family is about 800 dollars. During Christmas, stores and shopping centers are crowded with people, and consumption is more than 20% a year.
Children also love Christmas, because their expected Santa Claus will coming on that day. Young children believe that Santa Claus is a fat, kind, old man wearing a red dress, with a white beard. On Christmas Eve Santa Claus is a sleigh pulled by reindeer through the sky. He enters each house from the top by sliding down the hole in the fireplace, and then leave gifts for children under the Christmas tree.
On Christmas Eve, everyone will dress up Christmas tree. The whole family reunion in the sitting room, and sing Christmas songs around the Christmas tree. Filled with the Christmas gift under the Christmas tree, everybody exchange gifts, expressing their blessings and love. In addition, the community of church will organize Christmas “good news”, and the choir singing Christmas carols in front of christians door, then the host will welcome the choir to their home with refreshments. You can also join “good news” if you are interested. The choir sings the round bottom from one family to another, and believers join the “good news” constantly, the atmosphere of joy continue to the next day at two o ‘clock in the morning.
