My Christmas story

by Dalena Stephenson STEINBACH, MB

D uring the holidays we love making hot co- coa, spending time with family and friends and spreading joy and happiness wherever we go. Going Christmas shopping and every year on Christmas Eve we open one present. Making cookies for Santa and leaving milk out for him.

My Christmas story

by Haley Stanowski GRUNTHAL, MB

W e were by the Christmas tree. We were watching Christmas movies. We were eating lunch. While drinking Christmas punch. We began to sing Christmas songs. This is what we sang. We wish you a merry Christmas.

JUNIOR POETRY AND STORIES

All about Christmas

Spend time with the people you love

E veryone is jolly, we call this Christmas, everyone is happy, and it’s time to have fun. Do not be gloomy, just look at the stars, by Cherribim Sadueste GRUNTHAL, MB

by Havana Stephenson STEINBACH, MB

C hristmas is about spending time to- gether and talking, laughing, playing and the magic in the air. Christmas is not about the gifts and food. It’s spending time with your family and friends and pets. Just remember money does not buy hap- piness. Happiness is when you spend time with the people you love.

and appreciate the beauty, and wish for what you want. No need to worry, it’s time to relax, no need to hurry, be thankful and be glad. Never feel lonely, you have a family that is lovely, sharing love to everyone, that’s the meaning of Christmas.
