Introduction

Yes, it’s the most magical time of the year !! Christmas is almost here and we can all feel the festive spirit in the air !!
There’s something about this festival that is so magical and popular, especially among kids !! Maybe it’s because of Santa Claus and his reindeer, the Christmas tree with its pretty lights and decorations, the cool crisp weather, the beautifully wrapped Christmas gifts or the plum cake and the goodies .. but Christmas is special to everyone!! Christmas is the perfect time to strengthen relationships and remember the importance of having close family members.

Christmas doesn’t have to be all about expensive Christmas gifts, lavish meals, and over-indulgence. There’s a lot to be said for taking a simpler approach to the festive season. A crisp walk in the park with a loved one, followed by a hot chocolate topped with marshmallows can be great fun too.

It offers the perfect excuse to have a good time with those who matter most. Snuggle up on the sofa and watch a festive movie with your partner and kids. Or decorate the Christmas tree and cook up a lovely meal together and enjoy the true spirit of the festive season !!
