At the John Atanasoff Bulgarian school in Chicago bright Christmas lights and hope illuminated the hearts children, parents and teachers. With a festive concert, the Bulgarian children congratulated their parents and teachers and wished everyone "grace and kindness in the hearts, joy in the soul, love and understanding in the homes".

And Santa Claus did not forget to visit also the children from "Little Bulgaria" School and give them wonderful gifts.

A new school sleigh also appeared on the snow rink for their "White Christmas".

And on the island of Cyprus, Bulgarian children gathered a large part of the Bulgarian community in Limassol in one place.
