I loved the dancing cop. He must be in better shape than I am. I would love to see him directing traffic; it would make my day! I absolutely love the holiday season. Shopping, food, family, friends, shopping, wrapping gifts, Christmas movies, and shopping are just a few things I love to do during the holidays. When I was little, I couldn't wait for the stores to start putting up holiday decorations in the parking lots. That's how I knew Christmas was getting close and Santa would be coming soon! The past few years I've enjoyed more of the preparation... shopping, decorating, and wrapping gifts. But this year I've had the most fun with Braydon. Taking him to Christmas Town at Busch Gardens, to see Santa Claus, to see Christmas lights, and watching him open gifts on Christmas morning are the things I've enjoyed and look forward to most this year.

I think that the dancing cop was funny. I look forward to going out of town this holiday season. I need to get away. I think I don’t enjoy the kid stuff as much anymore. I am older and like more mature things.

Awe, that cop is so cute. I would love to have a cop like that here in Isle Of Wight. He is probably the center of their holiday spirit. My favorite part of the holiday season is getting to spend time with family that I never see. Yes, they have changed dramatically. With age comes more respect for the true meaning of the holiday season. When I was little I remember not really caring about see people, it was just about getting presents and seeing from Santa. Now that I'm older I would must more like to enjoy spending time with my family then opening a few presents.

That is so cool that he dances for christmas. The thing I look forward the most is just being with family and going shopping after christmas SALES!!!! Yes, the things I have done in the past has changed alot since I have gotten older. Not everything is fun anymore maybe because I am getting older things just aren't exciting.

I think he has a lot of holiday spirit should totally get a raise. I wish all cops had some humor. Some are just grumpy grinches. I think he is awsome and funny. He must be tired by the end of the day.

The dancing cop is pretty funny. I have never seen something like this before. I wish I could have seen him in person doing that. I can't wait for break to be here! I love spending time with family and friends, exchanging gifts, and eating the yummy food! Yes, things have changed a little bit. My family used to go over to my grandma's house Christmas night, but since she died a few years ago we have the party at my house.

I thought he was funny but cute. He danced to have the holiday spirit. I would love to see that. It would most likely make my day. I look forward to wrapping gifts and being with my family. Also I look forward to spending time with my boyfriend and his family because they are really fun to be around. The things I enjoy about the holidays really haven't changed.

I think the dancing cop was funny. He was definitely something you don't see everyday. Christmas is one of my favorite holidays because it is a happy time of year. During the holiday season, I look forward to getting presents and seeing Christmas decorations. Every year my parents and I drink sparkling grape juice on Christmas Eve. One of my favorite Christmas memories is drinking hot chocolate by the Christmas tree.

I thought the dancing cop was kind of cool.But I thought that he was doing his job like telling the people to go that is what I thought that is what he was doing instead of dancing on a highway. So I thought It was kind of fun of him dancing on a highway while telling the people to go. What was he dancing I mean he was on the ground and dancing all crazy so I did not know what he was doing. brittany Eley

The dancing cop was too cute. This holiday season I have a lot of things to look forward to. My brother and sister will be home from college. We are planning to have a Christmas dinner and a tree this year. For the past three years I've been celebrating Christmas with Christian and his family. Our family has had bad experiences with holidays so for the most part we've gotten rid of them in our house. So this year we're going to try to have Christmas again. Wish us luck.

I thought the dancing cop was very funny. But at the same time, it was strange. I look forward to being with my family, presents, shoppping, money, and food during the holiday season. Nothing really has changed about what I enjoy about the holidays.

That seems like it would cause accidents. Other than that I really liked the dancing cop video. During the holiday season I most look forward to spending time with my family. Yes, when I was younger we use to wait till Christmas Day to open up all our presents. About two years ago we started to open up one present of our choice on Christmas Eve night.

The dancing cop was pretty hilarious. He had some pretty good dance moves. I look forward to not having to go to school early in the morning during this Christmas break. Things have not really changed the past few years. I just enjoy being with my family on Christmas.

I thought that the dancing cop was pretty funny. It would be cool to see him directing traffic while dancing. During the holiday season I look forward to shopping, being with friends and family, and of course being out of school for Christmas break. When I was little I mostly looked forward to getting presents and stuff, but now I mostly just enjoy being with family and friends.

The dancing cop looked weird because he was dancing while patrolling traffic. The thing that I look forward the most during the holiday season is to be out of school for two weeks. I don’t have to worry about getting up early in the morning. The things that I enjoy about the holidays didn’t really change over the years because I really wasn’t and still now not that kind of exciting type of person for the things that I get for Christmas it’s not the fact that I don’t like the gifts that I get it’s just the fact that I don’t have that cheerful thing about me. I see my gifts and say yeah whatever and maybe go back to sleep. You know that I’m serious about things I don’t see anything exciting.

I thought the dancing cop was cute. On the holidays I look forward to going shopping for my family. However, most of all I look forward to spending time with my family. I do feel as if the feeling of the holiday has changed over the years. For the past couple of years it really hasn't felt like Christmas time too me.- Alia H.

I think the cop must be a lighthearted man who wants to have fun in a not so fun job. Also it would be nice and may make my day to see a cop having fun, as long as he isn't messing up traffic. lol I look forward to the pumpkin pie and the warm fire. Things I used to enjoy have changed a lot and Christmas isn't the same for me anymore but I guess that’s expected when one gets older. Just everything in general from; the decorating of the tree, to the gifts, to going to my grandma's house after. This year will be someone different because for the past 2 years I had my girlfriend with me and I really enjoyed the memories of Christmas time with her, so yeah time to move on make a different memory.

I think the dancing cop was really funny! If I was riding down the road and I was a dancing cop in the middle of the street dancing and directing traffic at the same time, I would be so weak. The things that I'm looking for over the Christmas is my laptop,my $$$$, and spending time with my family, especially my little cousin Jabari.T. Collins. Yes; because when I was little I was looking forward to toys, and as the older I get, the only thing that I want is Money .

I thought he was cool. It's something that will make someones day... I think it's cool how someone would do that while he's working. I just look for joy and fellowship during the holidays... Yes they have changed a little. Like I don't really look forward to presents as much because we should give more than receive...

I thought it was a little corny, but hey it gets attention. I look forward in being able to hang out with my mom, sisters, and see my nephew. The things that I love about the holidays have changed a little every year actually. That is because my life is rapidly changing. Plus next year will be something new to look forward to as well, which is I'll be in the military so I'll be looking forward to coming home. James St. Peter

The dancing cop was interesting! I look forward to the holidays because you have the chance to give and recieve gifts. The things I enjoy about the holidays have not changed over the years. We always do basically the same thing on the holidays. Its kind of a tradition.

I thought that the dancing cop was absolutely hilarious. I am looking forward to spending time with my family who I haven't seen since I was 4. The things I enjoy about the holidays have not changed over the years. I will always enjoy spending time with my family. I can't wait till we get out of school Friday.
