Christmas Star: Christmas is a religious holiday. We celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ. We celebrate Christmas on the 25th of December. There are a lot of traditions connected with Christmas. Every year the people of Norway give the city of London a present. It’s a big Christmas tree and it stands in Trafalgar Square. Most families write Christmas cards. In England almost every family receives more than 60 Christmas cards.

Snowflake 1: Christmas is always the happiest day of the year. Children like to think of it as their own holiday. But for everyone it is a very special time. The fun starts the night before, on the 24th of December, Christmas Eve. Traditionally this is the day when people decorate their trees. Children hang stockings at the end of their beds hopping that Farther Christmas will fill them with toys and sweets.

Snowflake 2: Relatives usually meet for the big Christmas dinner. The traditional Christmas dinner is roast turkey with vegetables and Christmas pudding. In England people make Christmas pudding before Christmas. Everyone in family stirs the pudding and makes a wish. It’s a traditional meal, which people cook for Christmas party. When the pudding is hot they put 5-penny pieces in it, a button or a ring. If you find a button in your piece of pudding you will be rich, a ring – marriage.

Clown: At Christmas we follow old customs. We feel the magic of the season. Most families decorate their houses with a Christmas tree, buy presents for the family and friends. Sometimes English families trim trees outside their houses and place candles in the windows. Red and green are the traditional Christmas colors.

Snow Maiden: The 26th December – Boxing Day is an extra holiday after Christmas. This day people usually give and receive presents. This is time to visit friends and relatives or to sit at home and watch football.

Master of Ceremony:

– Let’s sing our favorite song “Jingle Bells” the soundtrack of the song sounds.

Jingle bells, jingle bells,
Jingle all the way!
Oh, what fun it is to ride
On a one-horse open sleigh!
Jingle bells, jingle bells,
Jingle all the way!
Oh, what fun it is to ride
On a one-horse open sleigh!
Dashing through the snow,
On a one-horse open sleigh,
Over the fields we go,
Laughing all the way!
Bells on bob-tails ring,
Making spirits bright –
What fun is it to ride and sing
A sleighing song tonight!
Jingle bells, jingle bells,
Jingle all the way!
Oh, what fun it is to ride
On a one-horse open sleigh!

Russian girl: But we need snowdrops very much.

Rudolf: You need a real magician, you need Santa.

Russian girl: Where is he? Tell us, please, we are in a hurry.

Rudolf: I can't tell you. He is very busy now, he is preparing Christmas gifts for children. That's why nobody knows where he is. But you can ask Frosty.

Rabbit: Who is Frosty?

Chorus. Song “Frosty, The Snowman”.

Frosty the snowman was a jolly happy soul,
With a corncob pipe and a carrot nose,
And two eyes made of coal.
Frosty the snowman is a fairy tale, they say.
He was made of snow but the children know
How he came to life one day.
There must have been some magic in that
Old silk hat they found,
For they put it on his head
He began to dance around!

O Frosty the snowman,
Was alive as he could be!
And the children say he could
Laugh and play
Just the same as you and me.
Thumpety thump thump
Thumpety thump thump
Look at Frosty go!
Thumpety thump thump
Thumpty thump thump
Over the hills of snow…

Frosty (appears): Who called me?

Russian girl: Dear Frosty, can you show us the way to Santa’s house. We need his help. It’s Christmas Eve now and we’d like to get a basket of snowdrops on Christmas Day.

Frosty: What strange presents do people want to have on Christmas! OK, if you guess my riddles, I’ll show you the way.

Russian girl: We’ll try and I think children will help us (to the audience). Will you help us to guess Frosty’s riddles?

It's blue by night
By day it's white.
It is cold and not dry,
It falls from the sky. (Snow)

Fat and gay, on a winter day,
He came here with us to stay.
But day by day he grew sad and thin,
And so we brought his younger brother in. (A calendar)

In winter and in summer
They stand in one color. (A fir-tree and a pine)

This is the season
When children ski
And Santa brings
The bright Christmas tree. (Winter)

Frosty: Let's go that way. I'll follow you, you can lose yourselves. (They are going away).

Music. Chorus “I wish I were a snowman”

I wish I were a Snowman,
So tall and big and white.
I'd never have to clean my teeth,
Or go to bed at night.
But maybe Mister Snowman
Is wishing he were me,
For I'll be here when summer comes,
But where will the Snowman be?

Music. Song “Christmas is coming..”

Christmas is coming
The goose is getting fat
Please, to put a penny
In an old man's hat
Please put a penny
In an old man's hat.
If you have no penny
A half-penny can do
If you have no half-penny
Then God bless you.

Lights go down.

Miss Snowflake: Meanwhile we can play different games and have a lot of fun!
snow maiden: In the meantime, we will play different games and have fun!

2)Word Game “Catch the snowball!”

Children can name the following words and phrases: snow, winter, cold, frosty, windy, snowfall, snowman, snowball, Christmas, New Year, Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, snow maiden, December, January, February, Christmas tree, etc .

Miss Snowflake: You know so many words and phrases. Santa Claus like clever and hard-working children, he’ll definitely bring you his nice presents.
snow maiden: How many words and expressions do you know? Santa Claus will appreciate smart and hardworking children with good gifts.

If children are embarrassed or cannot remember the appropriate words even in Russian, you can help them. Miss Snowflake throws a snowball and says a word on the topic in Russian (English), and the child returns the snowball to her with a translation of the word spoken to her. Just for fun, you can play this game: 2 teams are formed, they are asked to make lumps of snowballs out of white paper and throw them into buckets. The team that throws the most snowballs wins.

3) Draw a snowman and a snowwoman!

Children are given whatman paper and markers (pencils, paints, markers).

Girls dressed as snowflakes read the poem “Snowflake” by K.D. Balmont in Russian and English. Classical music plays while reading.
Pupils 1-2: What a pure snowflake!
What a brave snowflake!
It is fluffy, white and nice.
We are charmed by winter dance!
Pupils 3-4: It has left the sky, but why?
Here it's dangerous. Oh my!
What will! Please don't fall down!
Oops, the snowflake’s on the ground.
(Translation by I.G. Krikunova)

Pupils 5-6: Light fluffy,
Snowflake is white.
How clean
How brave!
Dear stormy
Easy to carry
Not to the azure heights,
Begs to go to earth.

7) Christmas alphabet.

At the preparatory stage, each child is given rhymes with one of the letters that make up the word Christmas. Children find the necessary letters, raise them above their heads and stand so that the word Christmas is formed. Then they recite the Christmas alphabet.

join in any reindeer games.
