family traditions

Do you and your family eat a special holiday meal, handed down for

generations? Or do you have fun food traditions that you invented your-

selves? Here’s what girls have to share about their own family traditions.

Every year, my family and I—including

my mom, sister, cousin, grandma, and

aunts—make hundreds of homemade

ravioli to eat at holidays and birthday

dinners. They are the most delicious

ravioli ever tasted, hands down!

—Rosita

For Hanukkah, my

mom always makes

her own donuts and

potato pancakes.

—Rachel

At Christmas, my mama

makes tamales and posole.

Posole is a Mexican soup

that has hominy, meat, and

a spicy broth. Tamales have

masa on the outside and

spicy sauce and meat on

the inside. They’re delicious!

—Naya

I’m from Sweden, and we

always make saffron buns

for the holiday Saint Lucia.

The buns are shaped like

an S and have raisins. Saint Lucia brings light to the darkest time of the year! —Caroline

We have spaghetti for dinner every

Monday night. It always gives me

something to look forward to on

the first day of the school week!
