Christmas Spirit

Here at CEC we are getting into the Christmas spirit. Our Christmas tree is up, secret Santas are on the prowl, and Christmas carols are in the background.

Are you in the Christmas spirit yet? If not, now is the time, with less than a week before the Big Day. Here are a few things you can do to help.

Trim your own tree:
No time or money to go out and get a Christmas tree? No space to put it up? If you've always wanted a tree but can't stand the mess and hassle, why not create your very own virtual Christmas tree?



Send a holiday greeting to someone in English! What better way to say "Thinking about you" at the holidays?



And, last but not least, get into the spirit of the North Pole by creating your very own snowflakes!

We hope that the holidays have got you excited. We'd love to hear from all of our readers about how you are going to spend them.

• What traditions does your family have during the holidays?
• What foods will be featured on your table?
• Where, and with whom, will you spend the holidays?

We had a very successful 2007, and now it is time to wind things down and take a much-deserved break! We will see all of our students back here in 2008. Until then, happy holidays and happy new year!
