Two popular traditions at Christmas are decorating the home and singing Christmas

carols.

The home is the centre of the Christmas celebration. Inside, an evergreen tree is usually

placed in a corner of the living room. Children and their parents wrap strings of colorful

lights around the tree. They hang ornerments on the branches. A star of angel often crowns

the top. Carefully-wrapped gifts are placed beneath. Outside, families often string lights

around windows and wind lights around trees and shrubs in the front yard. As families

decorate their homes, they often put on a Christmas record. Almost every family has at

least one favorite Christmas album or compact disc. Schoolchildren of all ages perform

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

gather around the Christmas tree to sng traditional songs such as Jingle bell and Silent

night and then give presents to each other.
