Spending time with your family and to praying to God for a good year. To be thankful for what you get. And what you give. And to celebreate Jesus's birth. And that night Santa flies around the world and gives little girls and boys toys.

Christmas means Jesus' birth. We care a little more because Jesus cared about us. I always like to sing songs at Chrimastime. My grandma plays the piano. I also like to decorate the tree. I like these things because I get to do them with my family.

Christmas is a special holiday because I can spend time with my family, get lots of presents, have lots of fun and my stocking gets full of toys and candy. Sometimes I'm Mrs. Claus and my sister is Santa or the other way around. We enjoy handing out presents. It's fun to see what I get for Christmas and it's fun what other people get too. Another thing that makes Christmas special is the pretty decorations. It's fun too decorate the Christmas tree and when we're done it looke pretty. These are the things I like best about Christmas. The end.

"Christmas is a time to celebrate Jesus' birth," my grandma said. And really it is. It's fun to get presents, open them, but then play with them shortly. It also means being with other family members, decorating trees and making a very big meal for everyone. The Salvation Army helps cheer up people in need. Christmas service in church can be slow, but it has alot of meaning. Ol' jolly Saint Nick visits the houses of all of the good children. With all of the things going on, it's pretty easy to forget the real meaning of Christmas. I know how hard it is, but try to remember Jesus' birth. Merry Christmas!

Christmas isn't about presents it's about giveing. Giveing and sharing are the main things that Christmas is really about. Presents and candy is what some girls and boys would think of Christmas, but I think it's about giveing and sharing. The end.

It's mostly about my family, loveing, and careing. I go to my grandma's house in Ideal, my great grandma and grandpa, and my cousins come over. Once were ready to open preasents we gather them all up and take a picture. After that we open presents and then we get ready to go and say our goodbyes and hope that it will last for along time.

Christmas is all about giving, caring, loving and sharing. But, most of all it is the Lord's birthday Ñ My mom remembers it well because ten years ago she spent it in the hospital to give birth to me. I wanted to be born on Jesus' birthday but the doctors made my mom wait because I was 5 weeks to early. So, I was born 2 days after instead. Christmas has special meaning because it's another time besides Thanksgiving that our family gets together. That's what Christmas means to me!

To me Christmas means being with friends and family, a Christmas tree with presents under it, snowflakes falling all around, hot chocolate and a nice warm fire, sing carols on Christmas Eve. It also means watching Christmas shows, baking cookies wrapping gifts, opening gifts on Christmas Morning is also fun to. Christmas my favorite holiday.

I think Christmas means ... The baby Jesus was givin to Mary and her husband and I think that is why we get presents at Christmas. We can be like God and give presents. We can also be like Mary and recieve them. We have to be thankful that God brought Jesus in to the world by Mary. So always be thankful for the presents you get at Christmas big or small. Merry Christmas

Christmas to me is to celebrate Jesus' birthday and getting together with your family and going to church. It is also about giving too. Its fun decorating the tree and eating a big feast. That is what Christmas means to me!
Fifth grade
Christmas means to me a time of getting together with friends and family. Its also a time of giving and sharing, a time of loving and caring, a time for friends and family. Christmas means to me, only one day in a year when almost every one is kind, loving, caring, giving, and sharing. Christmas means to me everything because its Jesus's birthday, The most important day of the year.
Fifth grade
Christmas means nativity scenes. Giving, recieving, and Santa believing. Eating treats and sucking on sweets. Loving each other, even your brother. Having chapped lips and frost-bit fingertips. Christmas trees instead of leaves. Peace and joy for every girl and boy. Loving, caring, and lots of sharing. It's constant peace, the fighting will cease. But what Christmas means most is not just potroast. It's someone who will always please us. Of course, it's the birth of baby Jesus.

Christmas means that it's Jesus's birthday and it's family get together time. My favorite part about Christmas is getting out of bed and opening my presents and giving presents. Christmas is my favorite holiday because it's fun. I also just like being with my family.
Fifth grade
What Christmas means to me. To me Christmas means baking cookies, putting up the tree and Christmas lights, then playing in the snow. Getting sick Christmas Eve staying up half the night, then my sister and I wake up my mom and dad. Next we gather around the tree and open all our presents. It means going to church listing to carolers. Last we come home and watch the parade. That's what Christmas means to me.
Fifth grade
Christmas means alot to me. Especially when I have it with my family. It means happiness to me. Having the joy to see my family laugh and smile. It makes my heart warm to see something like that happen. Having my family and friends with me on Christmas Day is what makes me the happiest the most of all.
Fifth grade
What Christmas means to me is the birth of Jesus Christ. It also means sharing and caring, like giving food to the poor, giving presents, and showing love like Jesus did. I think you should spend time with your family even more on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day than any other day and the same with Jesus and God too. It also means how the Wisemen brought gifts to the baby boy named Jesus. Some kids believe in Santa Clause but I don't. There once was a man named St. Nick who went around giving shoes and if people were bad he would put coal in there shoes.
Fifth grade
To me Christmas means the birth of Jesus. The day our savior came to earth in a human form to save us from our sins. I don't believe it is for presents or candy or any thing eles. It is just a day to celibrate his birth. I believe you can still get gifts and candy or whatever eles you do as long as you do it in Jesus's will, not in sin or greed. You can have fun or a good time just remember what it's for.
Fifth grade
Some kids think all that is important is presents and Santa Claus. Not me, I know that presents and Santa Claus are not all that is one more thing some people don't think about. The birth of Jesus. I also think that is family togetherness time. Happiness. Still, Chistmas mostly means Jesus!
