In many countries, Christmas is one of the most important festivals of the year. Christmas Day is 25 th December. In some countries, Father Christmas brings presents to all good children on Christmas Eve. He can travel all over the world in one night. On that night, children are very excited and sometimes a bit naughty. Before they go to bed, they leave something by the fire for Father Christmas to eat and drink. Then they each put a stocking at the bottom of their beds. Children do their best to stay awake to see Father Christmas, but usually they fall asleep as soon as they are in bed. And no children have ever seen him. That’s strange, isn’t it?
