For me, the holidays are the best of the year. The warm, festive spirit is strong enough to melt away the icicles that form on my windowsill. I have lived all over New York City, and I can say that Brooklyn’s holiday cheer is unmatched. Far down on the heights called Dyker, some houses will take your breath away. The Dyker Heights Christmas lights are something you can’t miss. You can see life-size Santas, houses covered in lights, and maybe even hear Christmas songs from loudspeakers. The best time to go is mid-December, and the experience can be much better at night. My family drives through the remarkable streets of Dyker Heights each year, watching people of all ages enjoy this time of year. This is a perfect activity to do during the winter because it’s so close to Poly Prep. This is the perfect way to start a new tradition with friends and family!
