British people like holidays. Here are some of the traditional holidays they celebrate: 1 January - New Year`s Day, 14 February - St.Valentine`s Day, March or April - Easter Festival, 31 October - Halloween, 25 December - Christmas Festival.
People in Britain celebrate Christmas on 25 December. Families decorate their homes and Christmas trees. People prepare presents, make Christmas cakes. Children often write letters to Father Christmas with their wishes. On Christmas Day everyone opens presents and sits down to the table to have turkey or goose with vegetables. After dinner the family gathers in the living room to listen to the Queen on TV.
On New Year`s Eve (31 Desember) many people go to the parties with their families and friends. They go to bed after midnight to "see the New Year in" at 12 o`clock. When Big Ban strikes, people all hug and kiss each other and shout "Happy New Year".
On St Valentine`s Day people send a special valentine to those who they love. Some people buy presents for their sweethearts or give them a red rose, a simbol of love.
On Easter Sunday many people go to church. Children get presents of chocolate Easter eggs. Easter always means spring, flowers, green trees and young animals, especially lambs and chicks.
Celebrating Halloween is a very old tradition. People dress up as witches and ghosts. They make lamps of pumpkins. Sometimes children go out in groups, knock at people`s doors and get a treat.
