Reminiscing the old days of Christmas

Did you still remember your Childhood memories every Christmas Holiday? Is it Memorable to you? Did you enjoy your Childhood? Or you just staying in your house playing with your Families?

Let me tell you some of my Childhood Memories every Christmas that I called my Golden Memories because for now.. It will never happen again.. And hoping that some Children out there experience the Good Old times of Christmas..

Christmas Carolling

Christmas Carolling is one of Filipino Tradition when Christmas is Coming that most of the Children singing or dancing in every houses that near in their Place and Gain some Money and most of all the Happiness..

I remembered that me and my Friends always Plannings to make some DIY instruments when we do Carolling. My dad always make me a Drum.. All you need to do is to Find some Big Can like the Pringles Container or even the Can milk Of your younger Siblings, Rubber bands, Sticks and Plastics but you can use some old Clothes to cover your Drum 🤣

Some of my Friends making some Tambourine using "Niyuping Tansan" or Flatten bottle cap and Wire and Tadaa you have your own Tambourine 😍😍

Some of my Friends using Spoon and Fork to make some noise or even clap their Hands and Everyone will sing together.. We make some bottle Shaker too.

We just need to find some empty bottle and we will put some rocks, beads or centavo coins and now we are ready to sing!! 😍

We sing some Tagalog Christmas Songs.. Most people we met always Happy even if we sing out of tone or should I say"Sintunado" 🤣 But not all People Happy because some people says "Patawad"even if we're not starting to sing. Now I realized why.. Not all People in our Place have no Christmas or they are not Catholic.. People Gave us Coins sometimes a toy and a candy or chocolates and we are so very happy and They really prepared what they want to give to the children that doing some carolling 😍 Naalala ko pa tutal walo kami sa Group nag hati hati kami tag 4 ang kumakanta, 4 muna kakanta sa isang bahay tas pag nagbigay sunod yung apat HAHAHA!! Ginawa nyo din ba to? 🤣

We have so much joy when we are going home and we share together the money or foods .. Sometimes we got 500 pesos in a Night and that is very big value to us..

We starting the Carolling at 5PM to 8Pm without Guardian or Parents in our side.. We are all Children because that time it is very safe in our place but now it can't be happen without Parents.. because people change.. Some Good people became Bad people.. If you know what I mean..

Hey how about you did you do this too? With your Friends? 😍

Simbang Gabi(Midnight Mass)

This is one of the Teenager likes when the Christmas is Coming because they can meet their BF/GF in church 🤣 They called "Simbang Gilid".

I love "Simbang Gabi" Because I really felt the Spirit of Christmas! So many people want to Complete the 9 nights of The Mass because Filipino believed that if you complete the 9 Mass (Dec 16 to Dec 24) You and your family will get a Blessings even your Wish will come true.. ❤️

Every Children in Christmas day going to the houses of their "Ninang and Ninong" or Godparents but before that they need to go to the church First..

Ninong and Ninang Prepared their Ampao or Gifts to give to their Inaanak because that's the tradition of Christmas.. Sharing and Giving every Christmas.. But before Godparents give their gift to the children needs to "Mano" and says "Merry Christmas namamasko po"

We are very Happy even if we are not the GodParent's inaanak and you just come with your siblings because that's what the parents says so you can still get 20 pesos or 50 🤣🤣 If you know what I mean..
