About the Christmas.
“December”,a special days for western contries,is full of happiness because of Christmas.
Some of us like the western contries’festivals,actually,some western contries’festivals are popular for us,such as Christmas.People all over the world have ways to make Christmas fun.It is a time for winter pleasures and traditions and for spending quality time with friends and family. Traditions vary from place to place,but one thing is for sure----Christmas is a great time for a festival!
One of the best places to enjoy the fun of winter festivals is in Belgium,especially it’s capital,Brussels.This is where the famous Winter Wonder festival takes place every year. For most people,Christmas is a time to relax in the company of family and friends.But for Santa Claus,and the thousandsof fake Santas who imfersonate him every year,the Christmas season is time to get to work.
Although Santa Claus waits until Christmas Eve to take his famous sleigh ride,Santa impersonators can be found at shopping malls around America throughout the six weeks leading up to December 25th.
When you see Santa taking with kids at you local mall,that’s know Christmas really is on the way.With the excitement of Christmas,people forget about the real people behind the red robes and white beards.But being a mall Santa is a tough job.There is more to it than just sitting in a chair,there is more to it than just a red suit.Children can can really put the wear and tear on you.
A recent survey showed some of the challenges that mall Santas face every year.About 90 percent of Santas claimed that children pulled their beards to see if they were real.60 percent of Santas said that up to ten kids cough or sneeze on them every day.Even more disturbing,one—third of the Santas admit to having children wet themselves while sitting on their legs.So why would someone take this job?For Ben Brauch,a retired high school teacher who has worked as a Santa for the last six years,his answer is simple----only for the children.
He see maybe 12,000 kids in a six weeks period,it’s hard work,but it’s worth because you get to play with kids in his eyes.In fact,Brauch loves his job so much that he keeps his white beard long all year.
Christmas is a great time for a festival!
