Arbeitsblatt: Christmas in England

Christmas in England In English speaking countries, children dont get their presents on Christmas Eve (24 December). Santa comes at night when everyone is asleep. Santas reindeer can fly and take him from house to house. They land on the roofs of the houses and then Santa climbs down the chimney to leave the presents under the Christmas tree. In the morning of Christmas Day (25 December), children usually get up very early to unwrap their presents. Then they have plenty of time to play with their new toys. Christmas dinner is served in the early afternoon. Most people eat turkey and sprouts and Christmas pudding. 26 December is called Boxing Day. It hasnt always been holiday. People used to go back to work on that day where their bosses gave them little Christmas presents in small boxes. Thats why the day is called Boxing Day. Questions: 1.
