2. Happy Holidays, Israel! By: Ryan

3. Christmas Traditions American Christmas traditions vary from family to family. Families with little kids may celebrate the visiting of Santa Clause, to wake up the next morning with tons of new toys under the Christmas tree. Some families just have a big dinner with more family and friends with a glass of eggnog. Some people may go to the movies and just enjoy being together. My family does almost all of it. We either go to my aunts house and or have everyone come over to our house for a big lunch or dinner. Some years we go to the movies and watch an action- packed show or a Christmas movie. Something that my parents have always let me do is open one present on Christmas Eve. We put up a Christmas tree as a family as well. Christmas is a big thing for my whole family. We are happy to celebrate it.
