HomeMy WebLinkAboutThe Citizen, 2008-12-24, Page 17We asked the Grade 1 students at
Grey Central Public School...
What was your favourite
Christmas present ever?
“I like the dolls and stuffed teddy
bears I got on my first Christmas.”
- Hillary
“I got a camera last Christmas and
I think that was the best. I use it all
the time. We took pictures on
Christmas and then some birthdays.”
- Sophie
“I got a little teddy bear when I
was four. He’s brown and white. I do
crafts with him all the time. His
birthday is when Christmas is, so we
have two parties.” - Brantley
“I liked the dinosaurs I got last
Christmas. I still play with them all
the time. I asked for some more
dinosaurs this year too. I asked for
some army guys too, so that they
could play with the dinosaurs.” -
Max
“I really like unicorns, one
Christmas I got a movie,The Last
Unicorn and I got some unicorn toys
too. When I was five though, I got a
teddy bear and I like her too. She’s
purple, so I called her Purple. She’s
beautiful.” - Anna
“I think it was the Christmas that I
got three tractors, last Christmas. I
liked it so much because they were
the three tractors that were the kind
I liked. There was a Case tractor and
a New Holland tractor, not John
Deere, because the Case tractors can
go faster than they can anyway.
This year I wanted an XBOX 360
and a pig barn and a cow barn and
another Case tractor.” - Reece
“It was probably when I got a toy
house. It came with a doll set too.
That was last Christmas, but I still
play with them.” - Emma H
“It was when I got Wall-E for the
Wii. I play it all the time, but I beat it
already.” - Nicholas
“I got a make-up kit last
Christmas, so that was the best. I
don’t have it anymore though
because it’s all lost and broken, so I
asked for another one.” - Erin
“I got a tall Lego tower last year
and a remote control dinosaur. He’s
a T-Rex that walks.” - Gregory
“It was last Christmas when I got a
cupcake and a cookie maker. After
you make them, you can eat them for
real. Oh, and I got Barbies last
Christmas too. I liked the one a lot
because it came with this big dresser
that I could put things in.” -
Mercedes
“I got make-up last year. It was
nice, I put it on and I looked really
good. It was hard though. This
Christmas I’ll probably ask for more
make-up.”
- Saminia
“I’m pretty excited, I’ve already
written down what I want for
Christmas in my planner. I just want
chocolate, any kind really. That’s
what I got last year too and I loved
it.” - Emma S
“I can’t remember anything I’ve
got. I want some WebKinz this year
though.” - Abby
“I don’t know.” - Brandon
“I got a gun-holder and bullets last
year and a pirate ship on my fourth
Christmas.” - Cole
“I’m not sure. I can’t really think
of anything.”
- Aaron
“I got make-up last year and a
computer. We played games on the
computer like Dora and Hannah
Montana.” - Alicia
“I got the Lego building blocks
last Christmas and then I built a
crane with legs with them. This year
though, I asked for a remote control
four-wheeler.” - Matthew
