Some traditions in estonia is a holiday Yuletide. It begins with St Thomas day on December 21st. It is kinda like Christmas, but it starts ealier and last longer. I enjoy Yuletide because it is a time for the family to come together and relax. Every year, my family alsways decorates the town and have dinner parties. This has actually been a tradition for more than 350 years! WOW! It is so much fun for my family! Its over on January 6th. When Christmas Eve comes (December 25) my family surrounds the floor with straw, as a symbol of Jesus's birth. Then, my parents give all of my brothers and sisters new clothes and we all go down to the Christmas Eve service and a dinner party afterwards.
