Christmas Lantern. Here in the Philippines, Christmas lantern is the most common decoration that you can see around houses in every community. This has been a tradition for us Filipino to have a Christmas lantern which symbolizes hope and light. Christmas lanterns are beautiful with different colourful lights on it and forms a shape of a star.

Not all Christmas light are used in Christmas trees but it is also used as a decoration for houses and other things.

Wearing a red suit, boots and a hat, Santa Claus with his long white beard and a chant of “Ho! Ho! Ho! Merry Christmas!” is the most popular icon for Christmas season. Others also decorate his rain deers and with his snow sleigh and a sock full of gifts.

Snowman is one also icon for the Christmas season as it represents a snow during winter. With its natural body of two snow balls (shape like the number 8), a carrot for the nose, two branches of trees for the arms, two things for the eyes and a nice hat you can make a very good-looking Snowman. Snowman is often decorated outside the house so that others may see it with the part of the snow.
