A Holiday of Kindness

The children in 1st grade class "B" were buzzing with excitement. The holiday season was upon them, and they couldn't wait for the arrival of Дядо Коледа, also known as Santa Claus. They had been good all year, and they were hoping for some special gifts under the tree. Every day, during recess, the children would talk about the presents they were hoping to receive. Some wanted new toys, others wanted books or art supplies. But one thing they all agreed on was that they wanted to be on Santa's nice list. As the days passed and the holiday drew near, the children started to think about something else. They wondered if they could do something to make this holiday special not just for themselves, but for others as well. They talked about being kind and helping those in need. One day, their teacher told them about a local charity that was collecting toys and clothes for children who were less fortunate. The children's eyes lit up with excitement. They knew that this was their chance to do something kind for others. The children decided to organize a toy drive at their school. They made posters and spread the word to their classmates and teachers. Soon, the school was filled with donated toys, clothes, and books. The children felt proud of what they had accomplished. They knew that their kindness would bring joy to other children during the holiday season. And as they thought about it, they realized that being kind made them feel happy too.

Finally, the day arrived. It was Christmas Eve, and the children were gathered around the tree at their school. They had decorated it with the donated toys and clothes, creating a beautiful display of generosity and kindness. As they admired their work, they heard a jolly "Ho, ho, ho!" coming from the doorway. It was a surprise visit from Дядо Коледа himself. He had heard about the children's kindness and wanted to thank them personally. The children's faces lit up with joy as they listened to Santa Claus praise them for their big hearts. He told them that their acts of kindness had made the holiday season brighter for so many children in need. As the children said goodbye to Santa, they realized that the best gift they had received was the feeling of warmth and happiness that comes from being kind to others. From that day on, the children of 1st grade class "B" continued to spread kindness and joy wherever they went. They knew that being good and kind was the true spirit of the holiday season. And they also knew that being kind wasn't just for Дядо Коледа, but for every day of the year.
