I make snowmen and snowforts and have snowball fights with my family.” - Colton “We always go to my aunt’s house and see my cousins and my nana. I can play with all of my cousins. I’ve got a little bit of cousins.” - Elizabeth “I like spending time with my family. We open presents and then go to my cousins’ and grandparents’ house and we play. I like it because I don’t have to go anywhere by myself. Anywhere I am, I am with my family and I spend time with them because it’s nice.” - Brody “We always like giving people presents that don’t have any. This year we’re giving presents to a family in Teeswater. We try to do it every year.” - Victoria “I like to spend time with my family. I like to play with all of them on Christmas Day and then we get to go and see my Grandma and Grandad.” - Josh “I like giving presents to different people because it’s nice. I usually give presents to my mom and my aunt Debbie.” - Caleigh “I like it when Santa comes to my house and I get my presents. Then after Christmas we usually go to Grandma and Grandpa’s house and then my cousins come over.” - Austin “I like spending time with myfamily. On Christmas we travel andthen play outside. My uncle alwaysjumps on the trampoline outsidewith me.” - Simon “I like going and celebrating other parts of Christmas, like going and seeing different parts of my family and going to their houses. We have supper and see everyone who we haven’t seen in a long time like our aunts and uncles and cousins. Seeing different parts of my family is so important, like my cousins.” - Caleb “Spending time with my family is my favourite. I like to have supper together with them and then open our presents together with them.” - Spencer “I like to open my presents and play with my toys after I’m done opening my presents. I like it when Santa comes and then I like to see my grandma and grandpa.” - Tim “I like giving people who don’t have any toys some toys for Christmas. On Christmas you get to ride around and see people’s houses and your friends’ houses because you might see your friends.” - Makayla “I like spending time with my family. We have a special tradition to go and see each family in our family on Christmas and it’s fun going fromhouse to house.” - Justice“I like going to my grandma andgrandpa’s and seeing all of my cousins.” - Mackenzie“I like getting toys and I like towait for candy in my stocking.” -Anna “I like going to my grandma’s.

Continued from page 10 make the buttons into the plastic.” - Mikayla “I want a Nintendo DS for Christmas. I would have to use some electrical supplies and I could put them together and make the game. Then you would use the wires and plastic and put something on top, kind of like a sticker. I would probably have to test it before it goes out and play it.” - Brooke “I want another Nintendo DS game for Christmas. You would use the metal covers so if it gets wet you can still play the game. You would have to use a lot of covers to make sure it doesn’t get wet. I would put some wires in the game and maybe some plastic things to hold everything in place and then you would have to put it in its package.” - Marissa “I want this toy that is little, but it shoots this ball out of it. You would have to get some plastic and then make a neck and then some wings and then you just paint it red.” - Adam East Wawanosh children tell favourite things Christmas favourites We asked the Grade 1 class at East Wawanosh Public School what their favourite part of Christmas is.
