Christmas starts early at CILT Cymru,
so here are a host of websites to keep you all busy!


You can find details of published and online resources on the Nacell Christmas page.
The BBC website has lovely sections dedicated to learning about Christmas in France Spain Germany and Italy - there is also a festive quiz to try.

About.com h
as an index of links to popular Christmas carols in Spanish - known as villancicos. Lingolex have a list of Spanish Christmas vocabulary.

Some free resources - if you have access to the web in class: a great French-Canadian site with songs sung by children, complete with visual presentation of the words. Worth checking out their Xmas advent calendar of songs (24 is 'Silent Night' in German, the rest are French, 11 particularly sweet!)

Momes.net has a vast array of festive activities to suit all key stages - letters, rhymes, stories, activities, coloring in, recipes, presents and quizzes.
L'atelier du père Noël from Vivenoël.com has lots of winter activities. Have a look at the plan of the site to see what Santa has in his workshop.
The Ashcombe school have compiled a list of christmas sites for French, German, Spanish and Italian.
Aux Petites Mains has fun, practical ideas for all ages
Fête-enfants Christmas traditions around Europe

Lire et récréer has a Christmas section with Karaoke versions of traditional songs, Chants de Noël, like "Vive le vent" (Jingle bells)

Tête à modeler - things to make and do, Blue Peter style!

If you have any good ideas, websites, activities for Christmas, please send them to us and we will put them up here on the website!
