Text "New Year Celebrations"
Every country has its national holidays, but there are also holidays that are common for many countries. New Year's Day is the first holiday of each New Year. In Russia it is the most popular holiday, but in the West people pay more attention to Christmas.
New Year is always connected with our new hopes and dreams. Everyone hopes that next new year will be better than the last one. As usual people make New Year Resolutions, they promise to start doing morning exercises, to eat healthier food. Unfortunately people don’t always keep them.
The celebration of this holiday begins on New Year's Eve, that is, on the 31st of December. At home people stay up until midnight and much later. They light colored lamps on New Year Tree and have late dinner with champagne. Sometimes they just watch TV or go out for late walk. Everybody gets presents.
In Scotland New Year's Eve is called Hogmanay. Also the Scottish have the custom of First-Footing.
Most differences in celebrating New Year are connected with a meal or special food. For example, in Switzerland special bread, rich in butter, eggs and raisin is baked and a roasted goose is cooked. In Spain there is a custom to eat 12 grapes at midnight. In Greece some people play cards believing that they will be lucky the whole year if they win. In Russia the traditional dish for the holiday is “Russian salad” (Olivier).

And if you eve saw it

Join in any reindeer games.

Won "t you guide my sleigh tonight?"
Then how the reindeer loved him
And they shouted out with glee
"Rudolph the red nosed reindeer
You "ll go down in history!"

About the Christmas wreath
The Christmas wreath is a traditional decoration made of fir branches in houses in the pre-Christmas time. On the first of the four Sundays of the Christmas fast (Advent), the first candle is lit, the next week - the second, etc. according to the number of candles.
The Christmas wreath was invented by the Lutheran theologian Johann Hinrich Wichern. His children were constantly asking when Christmas would come. So that they could count the days remaining until Christmas, in 1839 Wychern made a wreath from an old wooden wheel, decorated with nineteen small red and four large white candles. Each morning, one small candle was lit in this wreath, to which a large candle was added on Sundays.
The Christmas wreath has different meanings. The addition of light in the wreath symbolizes the growing expectation of the birth of Christ. Four candles are associated with the globe and the cardinal points. The circle symbolizes eternal life, which is bestowed by resurrection, green is the color of life, and candles are light. Christmas wreaths are often decorated with three purple and one pink candles in keeping with the liturgical colors of Catholic Christmas fast services.
