Juletrefest
(Christmas Tree Party)

It is a tradition in many communities in Norway to organize a Christmas Tree Party for the children. On Sandsøy it takes place at the community house that is owned and run by a non-profit neighborhood organization. This year's Christmas Tree was great. The kids made many of the decorations and decorated it themselves. Everyone thought this year's tree was a very nice one. 

Santa came for a visit, too. The children sang a traditional Norwegian Santa Song and received bags with goodies in them.

Santa looks the same all over the world...this one with a crooked mustache.
