When students at Grayslake North took a survey, which they could find on Schoology, about their favorite desserts for Christmas, the most popular answer was cookies at 30.8 percent. Also students were asked about their favorite part of Christmas, and 39.7 percent selected family time, the most frequently chosen answer. Seventy-eight people took the survey.

Along with cookies at 30.8 percent for the favorite dessert, pie had 20.5 percent; ice cream cake had 12.8 percent; ice cream had 10.3 percent; cake had 6.4 percent; other had 5.1 percent; flan, candy and pudding all tied for 3.8 percent; and cookie cake had 2.6 percent of the vote.

What’s your favorite part about Christmas? With students voting, 39.7 percent chose family time; presents had 20.5 percent; decorations/decorating had 12.8 percent; snow had 10.3 percent; food had 7.7 percent; music had 5.1 percent; and movies had 3.8 percent.
Personally, I believe that pie is the best choice for Christmas dessert. My family and I always have at least one pie present at every Christmas dinner. My favorite pie is pumpkin pie, but I also enjoy French silk and apple pie.

I chose presents as my favorite part of Christmas but not because I love getting things. I mean I do really enjoy getting gifts, but I also extremely love giving gifts. I always enjoy seeing people light up when they open the gifts I give them. It means a lot to me when I see how much the things I get them or even make them truly shows that I’m always listening and care about them.
I love Christmas with all my heart. The smells, the songs, snow, family, friends, the whole season and holiday make the end of the year amazing and help the new year start right.
