Holidays
In Canada, we have many different days that we
celebrate.
On the first day of January, there is New Year's Day.
That is when we ring in the new year, and say goodbye to the
old year.
In February, there is Valentine's day.
That is the day when you tell your girlfriend or boyfriend
that you love them.
You can buy them flowers or candy, or take them out to
dinner.
In March, there is Saint Patrick's Day.
Everyone pretends that they are Irish on Saint Patrick's
day.
They all wear green.
Easter comes in the spring.
Easter is a religious holiday.
Some people celebrate by going to church.
Some people think that the Easter bunny comes and leaves
chocolate eggs for them.
In May, there is Victoria Day.
We celebrate this day in honour of England's Queen
Victoria.
There are fireworks on Victoria Day.
July the first is Canada Day.
In September, there is Labour Day.
This is the day that we honour the working man or
woman.
In October, there is Thanksgiving.
We give thanks for all the things that we are fortunate
enough to have.
We usually have a turkey dinner on Thanksgiving day.
On the last day of October, there is Halloween.
The children dress up in costumes, and go from door to door
collecting candies.
Remembrance day is in November.
People wear red poppies, and they remember all the people
that died for their country.
Christmas comes in December.
Christmas is also a religious holiday, but many children
believe that Santa Claus arrives
on Christmas Eve in a sleigh pulled by reindeer.
They believe that Santa Claus fills up their stockings with
toys and goodies.
He gets in and out of people's houses through their chimneys.
We don't get off work or school for all of these days, but
many of them are holidays from
work and school.
