 Christmas

Christmas, celebrated
by most Christians on
December 25,
commemorates the
birth of Jesus of
Nazareth. Americans,
like many of the
world's peoples, have
developed their own
Christmas traditions
and observances, and
these have changed
greatly over time.
American homes are
decorated with holly,
mistletoe and branches of
trees, most have a
Christmas tree hung with
electric lights, tinsel,
baubles, and strings of
popcorn and candy canes.
Halloween
Today school dances and
neighborhood parties
called "block parties"
are popular among
young and old alike.
More and more adults
celebrate Halloween.
They dress up as
historical or political
figures and go to
masquerade parties. In
larger cities, costumed
children and their
parents gather at
shopping malls early in
the evening.
The pumpkin is an
orange-colored
squash, and orange
has become the
other traditional
Halloween color.
Valentine’s day

In the second half of the 20th century,

the practice of giving gifts along with
cards became popular. Roses and
chocolates were the most commonly
exchanged Valentine's Day Gifts and
were usually given by man to the woman.
Children also
gift handmade
gifts and cards
to their friends
and teachers.
Thanksgiving Day

Thanksgiving Day is
a time of festivity,
family meals and
reunions in
America. Carved
turkeys, Pumpkin
Pie, Corns,
Cranberry Sauce
are the traditional
dishes adorning the
dinner tables in
almost every house.
A time for feasting,
Thanksgiving Day
epitomizes the
holiday mood of
people.
