How Christmas is celebrated around the world Estonia In Estonia they celebrate Christmas on the 24th of December, just like in Sweden. Their Christmas begins with Advent where children and adults hang up stockings and hope they fill up with presents the next morning. It’s a perfect way to build up expectations for the Christmas celebration. In Estonia Christmas is called “jõulud” which is a word that comes from Christian traditions and includes the birth of Jesus and the whole winter period. The Christmas dinner includes traditionally 7,9 or 12 dishes. Typical dishes that are eaten are blood sausage, sauerkraut and brawn. It is just as popular to eat gingerbread cookies in Estonia as it is in Sweden. You can find it everywhere on markets.
Poland In Poland Christmas celebrations start in the eve of the 24th of December. Poland has many religious traditions that are celebrated on this day, for example you shouldn’t eat anything after breakfast until the first star appears in the sky. Polish people often put hay under the table cloth and later give that hay to the animals in the stable. Traditional Polish Christmas dinner includes 12 dishes, which is the same as Estonia (symbol of 12 apostles). They also put an empty plate for strangers or lonely people who are waiting for Jesus to be born. Kids called “kolednicy” (carollers) go around to different houses and sing carols and get sweets in return. Carollers are dressed up as King Herold, aurochs, angels and devils. At 12 o'clock at night, everyone goes to church to attend a midnight mass where they celebrate that Jesus was born.

The monkey and the Christmas elves nce upon a time there was a monkey named Niklas. He O always dreamed about seeing snow and meeting Santa Claus. Niklas loved Christmas but there was a problem, he lived in the jungle in Africa. It never snows in Africa, so he wanted to go to The North Pole. There were rumours in the jungle that The North Pole was Santa Claus’ home. Niklas wanted to meet Santa Claus so badly that he decided to leave the jungle and all his friends forever. He will now travel to The North Pole. e didn’t have time to think about how to get there, he just H started walking. After 3 days of walking his food started to run out. He then sat down and took a rest. Niklas had to figure out a better way but instead he fell asleep. When he woke up there was a huge mountain with perfect bananas. He started to eat without even thinking about how the bananas appeared right in front of him when he was sleeping. He ate until he was full and packed down the rest of them in his backpack. Niklas continued walking while he thought about how to get over the big ocean when he reached the beach. Would he need to swim or would there be a boat? He didn’t know. At the beach his jaw dropped. There was a big ship with big black letters; N I K L A S. - This is weird, who placed this ship here?! he shouted. No one answered and the ship was empty. On the table inside the boat he found a map and searched up The North Pole. Niklas was now on his way. It went windy and Niklas lost control of the boat. The map flew in the water and Niklas couldn’t reach it. The waves were so high that the monkey lost his balance and hurt his head. Everything went dark. hen he woke up again he was in a bed made of gingerbread. Beside him W he found Santa Claus. - Hello? Niklas said. - Ho, ho, ho, Santa answered. - Where am I? - You are on The North Pole, welcome! I'm Nikolas.
