2 Joyeux Présentation par L coombes IOW, 2009

3 French children celebrate Christmas
or ‘le noël ’ in many similar ways to us. * They retell the story of Jesus using crib scenes ‘une crèche’ and plays. * They have a special Christmas cake une bûche de Noël

4 * They decorate their houses and often have a tree ‘le sapin de Noël’
* They send out cards. * They write letters to ‘père or papa noël’. * They give and receive presents. * They have presents on Christmas day.

5 But traditionally, French children put out their shoes
‘les bottes ou les sabots’ for St Nicolas or le père noël

6 In some parts of France (particularly in the North and North-east), Christmas comes early, when Father Christmas, le Père Noël, brings small gifts and sweets for children on December 6th, les 5 et 6 décembre , the feast day of Saint-Nicolas. Legend says père Noël brings ‘goodies’ to ‘good boys and girls’ but père Fouettard brings punishment for the ‘naughty’ boys and girls.

7 In other parts of the country, children place their shoes by the fire and wake up on Christmas Day to find them filled with presents from le Père Noël and fruit,nuts and small toys hanging on the tree. Christmas Day is mainly a day of celebration for children. While they all open their presents on this day, not all parents do, some are patient and wait until New Year's Eve, la Saint-Sylvestre, which is more of an adult celebration.
