On New Year’s Eve, everyone gets a gift for the person they drew and gives her/him his/her gift. On New Year’s Day, of course, we decorate our house. Another thing that we do is make special foods.
On New Year’s Eve we make some special food and eat with family members, friends or relatives. After dinner we watch a television program with our family members. We have a superstition about the new year, how you enter the new year, the whole year passes like this. We count down 1 minute before New Year. After we enter to New Year we play bingo or board games. Some people at New Year’s Eve don’t prefer sleep early, they have a good time with their family or friends all night.
