Regional Variations in Holiday Celebratory Rituals



As we Neopians once again find ourselves in the midst of the month of Celebrating, we are surrounded by breathtaking decoration. In the shops, glistening displays are lined up, enticing Neopians with their festive cheer. In Neohomes, Neopets gather together to decorate and to cook, filling the air with delicious smells and an even more delicious atmosphere. For once, all Neopians, young and old, agree on something: everything is wonderful during this time of year. The celebrations bring up wonderful feelings of nostalgia, and brighten moods for the days to come. But did you know that this month's celebrations aren't the same all across Neopia? While you may be used to the decorated fir trees, sparkling snow, and steaming Borovan typically associated with this month, Neopia is a global community and has so many fun and wonderful ways of celebrating.
