Mytradition is wrapping presents for Christmas. My grandmother started it when I wasn’t born.That
is when I beganed I participated when I was five.
I learned how to cut the wrap paper and I put names on them but the most of all was who to put the ribbon on it. I just loved it for I got to put it under a Christmas tree for Christmas to come.
