AS Christmas is almost here, children's world is filled with anticipation as they eagerly await their gifts.

For them, this is a season of excitement, not just for what Santa might bring, but for the thrill of exchanging gifts with their Christmas friends at school.

In between exams, children can often be found hunting for the perfect greeting card, spending ages deciding what to write inside to make it truly special. It's a tradition full of suspense, creativity, and joy—something that lingers fondly in memories.

This year, in Thiruvananthapuram that spirit is alive and well. Over the past few days, around 30 children from two schools have been busy crafting their own Christmas cards.

These handcrafted cards are set to be sold to classmates and teachers.
