Hey! First entry! Welcome to dpc!
This is a great place to explore and learn. Some of us (er... me) learn a bit slower than others, but...
Some suggestions on your entry:
As others mentioned, this is very grainy - which is OK if it was intentional and serves an important role in the image. It it does in this image, it is not obvious to the observer.
Crop - I find the light fixture in the hall distracting - it draws attention to itself, but does not appear to serve a purpose in the image. You probably could crop in a bit more on the right - enough to lose the light fixture - without hurting the image.
Great - the two ornaments, red with gold swirl lines and the plain gold one provide a strong focal point for the image, as well as a nice contrast to each other.
Don't worry too much about the score. This is a tough shot, probably in very low light - a challenge in anyone's book.

An overexposed imperfect crazy angled grainy shot- full of realness that some other staged shots can't must. this speaks to me of cabin fever, of testing and learning. All in all a success, and not bad at all for a brown!

Great view from a child's perspective

Very grainy. Not sure if that was intentional or if you had a high iso and this is the result of noise. The shot doesn't necessarily convey "play" to me, but Christmas. Very colorful, which I do like.
