Christmas in Finland

In the third two last week of school we studied Christmas in Finland, with room 3.We found out that children get there Christmas presents from (Joulupukii) Santa in person on Christmas eve LUCKY!!!
We also found out that people wear clothes that are primary colours with shoes that are turned up at the tip.
People eat reindeer meat for breakfast, lunch and dinner, with that they eat a special kind of bread.Moodeb
went to Finland about 20 years ago to see her pen friend.They stayed in a Goldilocks cottage.Can you believe that Moodeb still believes in  fairy tales. Have you ever heard of a sauna? A sauna is a steam room where there is heaps of steam.There are rocks there and you pour water over the rocks to create steam. You go in there naked. Unlike New Zealands you will feel comfortable there.When you get to hot in the steam room you run out naked and roll in the snow, did i not tell you that there is snow in Finland? When you  start feeling cold you go back inside.There is a competition to see who can stay in the steam room for the longest.Last year 2 people died.I hope you have much things about Finland.Merry Chrismas everyone.
