The two holidays I love best

Christmas and Spring Festival are the two holidays I love best.When talk about Christmas, the first picture in my mind is a fat, old man in red clothes and a red hat. He has white mustache and always smiles to us. We call him Christmas Father who puts gifts into children’s socks on Christmas Eve. The story brings children good dreams on Christmas Eve and surprise on the next morning.

Christmas Day is the most important day in western countries. It’s like Spring Festival in China. All the family members will get back, and celebrate together during Spring Festival. We put on new clothes, eat dumplings and set off firecrackers. But for the kids, I think the most exiting thing is to get lucky money. It’s different from western culture. You will ask, why Chinese parents give money to their kids in Spring Festival? I heard an old story about it from my mom. She told me that long long ago, there’s a monster named “sui”, he always hurt little kids when they’re sleeping at night during Spring Festival. An old couple wants to protect their grandson, so they put some money besides the kid’s pillow, then it worked. ”sui” never hurt their grandson again. After that, Chinese people start to use this way to protect their kids. That’s why we still get lucky money today.

Nowadays, in our country, more and more young people celebrate Christmas Day. Some people also invite guests to have a party in their house. But some old people have different ideas. They don’t think celebrating foreign festival is a good thing. They are afraid that young people will forget our own traditional festival.

In my opinion, Christmas Day brings us happiness and some fresh ideas different from ourselves. I like it. Of course, Spring Festival is still the most important festival in China.
