21st December: Before Christmas

21st December: Before Christmas 

To start with, a game about Christmas Traditions over the world:

You can even play "Taboo" with this one:

And maybe we cannot travel this year around Europe to visit some of the most beautiful Christmas Markets, so here you can enjoy this free tour:

And once you have visited a Christmas Market, you'd better try the Glühwein (mulled wine), a traditional german recipe that will make you feel warmer these Christmas nights...

For those who have run out of ideas for their dinner dishes, here you have a bunch:

And of course, there must be some Christmas carols:

And to finish with high spirits, a classical song from this time of the year:

"Last Christmas" Wham (1984)

And finally, for those of you who love a good book, here you are "A Christmas Carol" by Charles Dickens:

And an illustrated graded reader for your kids:
