International Christmas event

Momo-chan and Pinga was at this Christmas event at 8 am. All the kids who are taking mother language lessons were there. Each language group talked about how they celebrate Christmas and some sang a song in their language. It started with Spanish group as the event was proposed by Spanish teacher. Then Serbian, Arabic, Danish, Icelandic, Portuguese, Japanese, English and German. The biggest group was English group. They consists of kids from Great Britain, Canada, USA, New Zealand and India. Japanese group was just Momo-chan, his teacher and Pinga. His teacher and Pinga discussed what to say as they don't really celebrate Christmas in Japan. Momo-chan's teacher said that they eat chicken and cake and make decorations with origami. Also exchange presents. People reacted a bit interesting when she was asked how to say God Jul (Merry Christmas in Swedish) in Japanese and she said "Merry Kurisumasu".
Pinga though it was a nice international event.
