Tips to Make Christmas full of fun

The event of Christmas is celibate all over the world with great Happiness and whole Heartily. You can make the Christmas more enjoyable by doing or taking some points in your mind which I talk about under, and they are,



1. The excitement of the Christmas gifts being put under the Christmas tree, and then the family opening of the gifts on Christmas morning.


2. The food, all the special sweets being put out Christmas Eve.

3. Christmas Lunch with the turkey, lots of roast potatoes, brandy butter, and Christmas pudding being set alight at the table.


4. All the Christmas ornaments and decorations going up before Christmas, and most especially putting up and decorating the Christmas tree. And,


5. The games we would play, this is the most enjoyable part of the Christmas.


Food, though, did play a major part, and still does in English homes today. So, really, it is no surprise that food even became part of the Christmas ornament repertoire. Food, in one form or another, became part of the decoration of Christmas time.


As I remember, Christmas ornaments were usually in the form of chocolate with a silver or gold coloured wrapping that sparkled on the tree. Chocolate coins were popular, sometimes more than one in a brightly coloured string bag dangling temptingly from the Christmas tree.


I must say, any edible ornament on the tree became a prime target, as I anxiously awaited the all clear from my parents to start devouring whatever I wanted.


Later, though, a greater variety of edible Christmas ornaments emerged, such as candy canes, then, as the popularity of edible ornaments increased at Christmas, people started to use their imagination to make their own, or the local baker would make more elaborate ornaments for sale.


If you do make dough based ornaments to hang on the Christmas tree, remember you will need to make a hole in the cookie before it cools; that's the way the cookie doesn't crumble. Then when they do cool, you can thread a decorative ribbon to hang them on the Christmas tree.


The Christmas tea table is often adorned by the prime edible ornament, the Christmas cake. The prettier it is, the better it is for decoration once lunch is out of the way. Cake decoration is only limited by your imagination.
