Chuck Many people in my region celebrate something called carnival. The name comes from two Latin words meaning ‘say goodbye to meat’. The festival happens just before a month where we try not to eat so much. A lot of people enjoy the festival, but then they don’t follow the rule about eating! People wear amazing clothes in bright colors, and there is a big parade in most cities.
Jane At Christmas in my country, people give each other gifts on the actual day, 25th December. Many children get lots of gifts, so it was my favorite time of year when I was younger. I also loved the special things made of paper, called crackers. I take one end and you take the other and pull. The cracker breaks with a bang, and one person gets a paper hat and a little present from the cracker.
Ali In my culture, we have a holiday every year after the month which is called Ramadhan. During that month, we do not eat or drink from sunrise to sunset. This is very difficult in my own country, where one day only lasts about 12 hours, even in summer, but now I live in Britain, and summer days are more than 16 hours long. 21.
