<p class="MsoNormal">I am struggling with this right now. We have a "holiday" decorating contest at our school, which is clearly and obviously Christmas-centered. I am going to try and do a display called "Merry and Bright" and highlight different holidays
and festivals around the world that center on lights. That's my plan, at least. So far I have Lunar New Year, Diwali, Kwanzaa, Hanukkah, and Christnas. Any ideas on others to include? I'm also going to make it interactive with some sort of matching symbols
to holidays and have a prize, I think. <o:p></o:p></p>
