How Do We Celebrate Christmas?
Every family celebrates Christmas in its own way, but many beloved traditions have fascinating origins:
- Christmas trees: These trace back to 16th-century Germany, where families decorated evergreens with candles, fruit, and small ornaments to mark the season.
- Caroling: What we now call caroling began as wassailing in England—groups would sing to wish others good health and receive warm drinks in return.
- Gingerbread houses: These sugary creations rose in popularity after the Brothers Grimm published Hansel and Gretel. A tale featuring a candy-covered house was enough to spark bakers’ imaginations around the world!
Over time, these customs traveled across continents, evolving along the way. Together, they help create that unmistakable Christmas feeling we look forward to each year.
