  • “Christmas Around the World”
    “Christmas Around the World” Do you ever wonder how boys and girls celebrate Christmas in other parts of the world? Let's explore together and learn about Christmas traditions in other countries! Christmas in England! Can you find England on a map? In England boys and girls hang Christmas cards from their trees. They also put little candles on the branches of their trees. Some families do not eat turkey in England! Children there enjoy a wonderful meal of roast beef and plum pudding. On December 26th in England, the English celebrate a holiday called "Boxing Day." This name and holiday comes from a legend about noblemen boxing up gifts to give to their servants. This holiday is also called Saint Stephen's Day. Do you know who Saint Stephen was? You may have read about Stephen in the Bible. Stephen was a martyr for Jesus and he was stoned to death for his belief in Christ. In England little boys and girls receive their gifts from Father Christmas and they are not allowed to open their gifts on Christmas morning as is the custom in the United States. Children in England must wait and wait and wait until Christmas afternoon! Can you imagine! Children do hang their stockings by the fireplace to allow Father Christmas to stuff them with goodies. Children in England have a very unusual way of delivering their mail to Santa Claus. Instead of using their local post office, they throw their letters in the fireplace! Old English Traditions Charles Dickens "A Christmas Carol" Christmas in England Christmas in the U.K.

A Mexican Christmas inallthings.org/a-mexican-christmas/ Gala Campos Oaxaca Christmas in Mexico is a big deal: festivities begin early the morning of December 24th, when all of the women in the house get ready to start cooking and baking. The men set up all the arrangements for the celebration: chairs, tables, and decorations. After the food and the settings are done, most of the older adults go back to their rooms and take a nap while the younger people keep hanging out. At exactly 8:00 pm, everyone is ready to go to Mass. Since we are celebrating the birth of Jesus, we usually bring a candle and light it in church to represent the light that the Lord brings with him. Once we are back from church we start setting up tables and warming up the food. In the meantime, we play board games such as “basta,” which is about words and categories. At approximately 11:00 pm, we gather around the table and start eating appetizers and prepare the nativity set.

Christmas day begins with groups of carolers walking to and fro through the village, along the roadway, by the houses of the missionaries, singing the lovely carols known the world around. Often people may be awakened by a group of carolers beginning to converge on the house of worship. They return home to make final preparation as to the clothes one must wear and also as to his offering for the Christmas service. The most important part of their Christmas worship service is the love offering, this is the gift in honor of Jesus.

  • Christmas Traditions in Canada, the United States and Mexico Canada
    Christmas Traditions in Canada, the United States and Mexico Canada • Christmas trees are decorated and stockings are hung on the fireplace for Santa Claus to fill with gifts. • Cards and gifts are exchanged with friends and relatives. • Children put on pageants and go caroling. • In Canada, from 1875 onwards, Christmas lost its essentially religious character, at least for Anglophones and the upper middle class. Little by little it became a community festival which gave rise to much family merry‐making. New customs began to take root. Henceforth, the decorated Christmas tree, the crche with its santons or plaster figures, gifts and the Christmas "rŽveillon" became part of family tradition. • We decorate a pine tree with ornaments representing Christmas, buy or make each other presents that get wrapped in wrapping paper to be put under the tree so they can be opened on Christmas Day. Santa Claus is the person that who brings the presents. You aren't supposed to know what you're going to get, so that is part of the fun of Christmas Day. On Christmas Eve, December 24th, there is usually a turkey dinner and in the middle of the night, Santa Claus is said to come down the chimney and place the presents under the tree. Then he goes back up the chimney (he's magic) and flies to the next house in his sleigh with 9 reindeer pulling it through the air (it flies). On Christmas Day, all the presents are opened. In Canada, Christmas Day is celebrated on 25th December. The Christmas festivities here are quite similar to the American observance of the occassion.
