It is an annually period, from late November to January, which most people celebrate. Each country has their own customs, so people celebrate it in a different way from each others. However, there is a huge amount of symbols which we all relate with this time (trees, carols, reindeers, bells, stars, snow, wreaths...).
At first glance, the most important symbol is the Christmas tree. The most remarkable fact is that decorating the tree is a tradition which families make together. As we can see, people decorate it with garlands, electric lights, figures (like angels and bells)... and a star on the top, which represent the Star of Bethlehem from the Nativity.
From my viewpoint, carols are an important part of what we call Christmas. Generally speaking, it is practised by young children with illusion, while adults only sing so that their kids have a good time. As a rule, songs are accompanied by tambourines and zambombas; songs transmit a loving environment.
For instance, the snow is a fact which show that this season is coming. Nevertheless, this atmospheric phenomenon does not happen in all places; it usually occurs at countries in the north of the globe because of the low temperatures. In other way, the season is represented by a cold weather in areas in which snow is not typical.
