Hi! I'm Mika. I'm from Finland.
As you know, Father Christmas is from Finland, too.
This means he doesn't have to travel far to bring us presents.
Every year, my family and I decorate our home with a big Christmas tree.
This year we're decorating it with ornaments that look like Father Christmas.
They are very simple to make.
All you need is some paper and glue, and a red bead for his nose. Do you like them?

I’m Brad. I’m from the UK.
I’m a bit clumsy when I have to make something.
That’s why I’m doing something really simple this year.
And my dad is helping me, too. We’re making our own Christmas baubles.
To make them, we need some wool, balloons, water and glue.
I think I can do it.
Let’s hope my baubles will be nice enough for us to put them on the Christmas tree.

My name is Jess. I’m from the States.
This year, my mom and I are making a gingerbread house.
We’re going to put it under our Christmas tree.
My mom makes great cakes.
A gingerbread house is not so easy to make.
You bake some gingerbread dough.
You put everything together and decorate it with icing and candy.
I’m really looking forward to making it!

Hi! I’m Megan, and I’m from Australia.
Do you know that we celebrate Christmas in the summer in Australia?
You can lie on the beach and wait for Father Christmas to bring you some presents. Cool, right?
My brother and I are making a wreath this year.
There’s a tree in our garden. It’s called a Christmas Bush.
It has got bright red flowers.
I think our front door is going to look really nice with our wreath.
