New Year is a special holiday, which is loved and cherished by nearly every child in the world. Children are especially keen on this day as they get extra attention from the grown-ups and from Santa Claus, of course.
Each year I celebrate the beginning of the year with my family. It is well-known that New Year and Christmas are family-type holidays. That’s why we all gather at home in the evening for the festive meal. Sometimes we invite guests over. For example, last year we invited our uncle with his wife and kids. I should say it was lots of fun. They live in the suburbs, but as they wanted to see the fireworks in the center of the city, they decided to join us. Our house is situated two blocks away from the central square. That’s very convenient when there are special performances there. With my family we usually have a large and nourishing meal, which includes a roast chicken, some salads, my mum’s delicious cakes and champagne.
As the clock strikes twelve, grown-ups toast with a glass of champagne to the coming year. Me and my uncle’s children had some juice. After dinner we exchange presents and find some under the Christmas tree.
Then we leave the house and go straight towards the square to watch the colorful fireworks. The night of New Year is full of exciting developments. I especially like when there is snow outside, but that doesn’t happen every year in our region.
