Jingle bells! Jingle bells! Jingle all the way! Oh, Yes what a jolly song to hear when the holiday is coming.
As the Philippines celebrated the Holidays starting September where you can see different decorations in all houses and streets, it's when kids and kids at heart also starting to sing Christmas carols. Christmas is a charming and memorable season for children, and it is perfectly fair for aware adults to enjoy glittering lights, candles, decorated trees, presents, and family feasts.
I remember the days when I was a kid. My friends and I made tambourine using a bottle cap. We flattened it with stone and put a hole in the center to combine with wire. That's our way of making our song lively when we sing in front of our neighbor's house. In return, they will give us any amount of money as Christmas present or we called it "aguinaldo".
Aside from singing Christmas songs, we also attended the 9 mornings (Misa de Gallo) or Simbang Gabi. As the old saying goes like when you finished the 9 days of mass, make a wish and it will come true. Kids love the idea that one wish will be fulfilled.
