To your mom and dad:

You can clean the room, sing a song or write a letter to your mom and dad. You could also draw a picture if you like that.

To your teachers:

Sometimes students put their pocket money together and buy a teacher a holiday gift. Some kids would like to give their own gifts. You can send a nice card with the words of thanks inside. You might even write down the favorite things you’ve learned in the teacher’s class this year. It will make the teacher feel happy.

To the kids who need a friend:

The holidays are a good time to think about people who are lonely. Maybe there is someone in your class who doesn’t seem to have any friends. Try to do something for this person.
