What is Christmas? Mini-Book

This year we plan on adding a few different holidays to our Holidays Around the World theme in December.  Last year we added Hanukkah and Kwanzaa, this year Diwali and Las Posadas.  I created a mini-book for each of those holidays so wanted one for Christmas as well.  Here is my "What is Christmas?" Mini-Book:

• Christmas is a holiday celebrated in December by many people all over the world.

• People decorate a tree with ornaments.  They put gifts under the tree.

• A wreath hangs on your door to decorate for Christmas.

• People go shopping or make ornaments for the ones they love.  They wrap the gifts in paper and put a bow on top.

• Santa lives at the North Pole with Mrs. Claus. The elves help Santa make toys for children all over the world.

• The elves help Santa fill his sleigh with toys for Christmas Eve.

• Some families go to church on Christmas Eve.

• The reindeer pull Santa’s sleigh in the night sky.

• People make cookies at Christmas. They leave them out on Christmas Eve for Santa to eat.

• Santa puts presents under the Christmas tree while everyone is sleeping. He fills your stocking with goodies.

• On Christmas morning, people open gifts from each other.
