What is Merry Christmas?

English Christmas song "We Wish You a Merry Christmas" is ranked 230 and 9681 in the Roud Folk Song Index. The carol's well-known rendition originates in the English West Country. The carol's success might be attributed to Bristol-based composer, conductor, and organist Arthur Warrell (1883-1939). The tune was created by Warrell, a lecturer at the University of Bristol starting in 1909, for his group of University of Bristol Madrigal Singers. 


Christmas is praised for recalling the introduction of Jesus Christ, Christians accept as the Child of God. The name 'Christmas' comes from the Mass of Christ (or Jesus). A Mass help (sometimes called Fellowship or Eucharist) is where Christians recollect that Jesus kicked the bucket for themselves and afterwards reawakened.

Nursery rhymes provide tiny children with scaled-down learning opportunities that help them develop important foundational skills. They may also frequently catalyse extended periods of imaginative and innocent play. They are a valuable resource for early schooling and help children develop an interest in language's rhythm and examples.


Children should be exposed to linguistic communication several times to develop their phonological awareness, and nursery rhymes are the best means of achieving this.
