I think New Year holidays are the best vacation. In Japan, people eat "soba noodles" on New Year's Eve. Also, they listen to Bell of a temple on TV with their families.
We send New Year's cards to an acquaintancewe by New Year. Also, we go to shrines. We tell fortune of the year. In addition, We wish each other a happy New Year with relatives. I like this time. Because l like relatives. Also, children receive New Year's gifts ; money.
After that, we eat special dishes prepared for the New Year. It calls "Osechi" . I like the foods.
We cook rice cakes with families. We eat it and display in a room. After that ,we clean our houses and its furnishings.
We are very busy on New Years. But we can meet relatives after a long time and enjoy the day.

DeleteThe presentation of Osechi is amazing...it almost looks too nice to eat! That's one tradition I wish we had in Canada.
Corrections:
It is called "Osechi".
I like this time because I like my relatives
