  2. I like each season as it comes, but in winter when the weather is cold and wet I feet quite snug and cosy when the lamp is lighted and the blind drawn. I look forward to the long winter nights and the time passes very pleasantly. After tea I do my exercise and learn my lessons and then we all gather round the fire and talk. Sometimes I read a story book. We also play some games to pass the time. We play Ludo and Snakes and Ladders both of which are well-known games.
