CHRISTMAS VIDEOS

ORIGAMI ORNAMENTS

Ornaments inspired by Origami, the traditional Japanese paper-folding craft, are colorful, inexpensive, and easy to make. You only need a few materials - a box of slightly shiny, lightweight origami paper, string, white glue, and scraps of colored tag board or paper.
To make the Santa, we used an 8 inch square of paper and folded it as shown in the drawing below. Complete the Santa by adding a beard, trim, and hanger. You can secure the arms with glue, if necessary.
For the tree, use a 5 inch square and fold as for the Santa; stop when you have the triangle in the fourth step. Take two horizontal tucks to give a tiered effect. Glue on a tag board star, a hanger, and tiny ornaments made of contrasting origami paper.
To make the reindeer, start with a 6 inch square of paper and follow the folding instructions. Cut antlers from tag board and glue on.
Make the bell by folding a 7 inch square according to the drawing. Finish the bell by separating the points at the top and fold them down each side of the bell; secure with glue. Invert the figure and glue a clapper into the opening and a handle on top.

CHRISTMAS IN AUSTRALIA

Christmas in Australia is celebrated during our Summer Months. No snow and log fires for us, though
our Christmas Cards and traditions usually depict those of colder climates. Australia is a multicultural
country and with this, our traditions are often mingled and derived from a mixture of other countries. Yes
we have Christmas Trees, Father Christmas, Christmas Carols and gifts which are a familiar Christmas
scenario. Christmas Dinner may be a barbeque in the backyard or a picnic on a beach though.
Champagne instead of eggnog. Pavlova instead of Plum Pudding. Christmas also coincides with the
Summer Holidays and quite often families will celebrate Christmas away from home.
The big events of the Christmas season are the Carols By Candlelight. These began in Melbourne in 1937
and are outside concerts in the warm summer evening's where people sit on blankets light candles and
join together to sing Christmas Carols. Most towns have a concert and two major ones are televised
across Australia from Sydney and Melbourne. Christmas Eve wouldn't be the same without Carols
by Candlelight
