Предметы должны быть одинаковыми в обоих носках. Каждый носок крепко завяжите ленточкой. Раздайте детям по листку бумаги. Передавая носки по кругу, ребята записывают предметы, которые они смогли нащупать. Два носка сделают игру немного динамичнее. Победитель тот, кто угадает больше предметов.
AUSTRALIA
Christmas traditions are more or less similar with only one exception: Christmas in Australia is never white as it hardly snows there during that time. While the other nations enjoy a white snowy Christmas, Australia is filled with bright sunshine and warm climate. So when Santa Claus delivers his presents, he’s not taken around by reindeer because they can’t stand the terrible heat. He’s taken around by six big, white old man kangaroos called the six boomers
The children sing the song “Six white boomers” and dance (flesh mop).
Six white boomers,
Snow white boomers
Racing Santa Claus through the blazing sun
Six white boomers,
Snow white boomers

AMERICA
The USA is one of those countries where Christmas is the main event of the year. People of all ages love this holiday, not only because it’s a day-off, but also because it gives the opportunity to have lots of fun and to spend time in a family circle. It also denotes the beginning of New Year and new life. The day after Christmas is known as the Boxing Day. It’s when everybody opens the presents, which are found under the Christmas tree. Santa Claus is thought to be the one who brings these presents. Children believe that he enters the houses through chimney and leaves the gifts for them either under the tree or in colorful stockings, hanging above the fireplace.
Chimney sweep is dancing. Santa Claus is wandering down the street. He is sad and tired. The chimney sweep stops dancing and comes to Santa Claus.
The chimney Sweep: Why are you sad? What’s the matter?
Santa Claus: “ Oh, my grandson! I am very old and I don’t know how to climb the chimney and deliver the presents. Besides, I am very tired.”
Chimney sweep: I’ll help you. Let’s go (they climb through the chimney and Santa Claus delivers presents).
Santa Claus: Thank you very much for your help. Children will be happy.
Children sing the song “Let’s all ...” to the tune “We wish you a Merry Christmas” and dance. (выучить всем)

Christmas Tree (Рождественская елка)
Группа детей садится в круг, в центре которого ведущий. У каждого ребенка в кругу прикреплена карточка на рождественскую тему: Star, Bauble, Tinsel, Angel, Snowflake, etc. Должно быть не менее двух карточек с одним названием в кругу.
Ведущий называет слово. Например, snowflakes. Снежинки вскакивают и меняются местами. И так с каждым словом. Но если ведущий кричит "Christmas Tree" все дети должны вскочить и поменяться местами. Это игра очень быстрая и энергичная. В нее любят играть и старшие и младшие группы школьников. Она сближает детей.
Japan
Japan has only one% of Christian population and for them Christmas celebration is not about family and gifts but more about helping the community and doing nice things like helping the poor or sick people. (a beggar is sitting with a bowl, people are passing and putting coins, candies, tangerines…)
India
Christians in India are found in every community and state. The Indian Christians usually decorate mango or banana trees. They decorate their houses with mango leaves and lamps made with clay. Churches are decorated with lights and candles and people flock the well lit streets to celebrate the Christmas festivities. (pupils are decorating the tree).
RUSSIA
Christmas in Russia is not so popular as New Year. People celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ on the 7-th of January. It is a religious holiday. This holiday has become the day of family re-union, relax and happiness. The special tradition of Christmas and Svyatki in Russia was kolyadki, or glorification. Youth and children went out with a large self-made star, singing church songs, and also spiritual songs-kolyadki devoted to Christmas.
Колядую, колядую
Я зайду в избу любую.
Попрошу хозяйку
Сладостей давай-ка.
И печенья, и конфет,
И с орехами щербет,
И халву, и шоколад,
Пастилу и мармелад,
Вкусное пирожное,
Сладкое мороженое
Мы и сами будем есть
И друг друга угощать
А хозяйку, а хозяйку
Добрым словом поминать!
Ночь волшебная идет
Добрая, святая,
Радость светлую несет, Души озаряя.
Открывайте ворота
Коляде идущей,
Накануне Рождества
Счастье вам несущей,
Чтобы полон был ваш дом
И добром и благом,
Хорошо чтоб жили в нем
Без забот и тягот.
Шуточные и короткие колядки на Рождество
Не дашь мне ватрушки -
Получишь по макушке!
Не дашь пирога -
Уведу корову за рога!
***
Добрый тебе вечер,
Ласковый хозяин,
Радуйся, радуйся, земля,
Сын Божий в мир родился.
***
Коляда,коляда!
А бывает коляда
На кануне рождества
Коляда пришла
Рождество принесла.
***
Воробушек летит,
Хвостиком вертит,
А вы, люди, знайте,
Столы застилайте,
Гостей принимайте,
***
Хозяин с хозяйкой,
Слезайте с печи,
Зажигайте свечи!
Открывайте сундучки,
Доставайте пятачки!
Вам для потехи,
Нам — на орехи!
