Christmas carols. The home is the center of the Christmas celebration.Inside, an evergreen

tree is usually placed in the corner of the Living room.Children and their parents wrap

string of colorful lights around the tree, they hang ornaments on the branches . A star or

angle often crowns the top. Careful- wrapped gifts are placed beneath. Outside, families

often string lights around the windows and wind light around trees and shrubs in the front

yard. As the families decorate their homes, they often put on Christmas record. Almost

every family has at least one favorite album or compact disc. School children of all ages

perform Christmas concerts for their parents and communities. On Christmas’ Eve, family

members gather around Christmas tree to sing traditional songs Such as Jingle bells and
