Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
"This book provides a delightful way for students - and classrooms - to celebrate Christmas while learning about cultures around the world. The book is bursting with craft projects, recipes, jokes, fun facts, trivia, and extras such as quizzes and a script for a Christmas play. (Can you name all of Santa's reindeer? Make your own thumbprint greeting cards. What tradition do Mexican children take part in during Christmastime?) Examples of the history and background of the holiday are explained in terms children can readily understand. Traditions from around the world are explored in detail, often accompanied by photos of children partaking of these customs, providing readers with a worldview of the holiday. Each project and recipe are child-appropriate and include simple, numbered instructions. The dynamic mix of content strongly supports the Common Core State Standards and make this book perfect for teachers to use for multicultural classroom activities. Students will also find them a useful resource for global studies as well as for holiday fun!"
