Christmas Gifts for children and babies 

What is Christmas?

Christmas is a traditional holiday to celebrate the birth of Jesus Christ, but in the early 20th century, it also became a family holiday. Observed by the Christians and non-Christians, the holiday is now often devoid of Christian elements along with the mythical man of Santa Claus.

How is Christmas celebrated?

In many religions, countries celebrate Christmas within their beliefs and traditions. In India they decorate bamboo trees or even mango to celebrate the festive season. Feasts, picnics and fireworks are often popular in warm climate countries. It is also extremely popular around the world to exchange gifts on Christmas eve or Christmas morning.

We all know and love the big bearded jolly man Father Christmas. Wonder how he got the name Santa Claus? Around the world he is known as all sorts of names, to include Sinterklaas which means Saint Nicholas in Dutch, the language of the Netherlands. St Nicholas was a Christian bishop who lived in the 4th century - he was known for being kind and generous, he later became the patron saint of children.

However, Santa Claus isn’t the only Christmas character, in Italy there's a kind of creature which is known as ‘La Befana.’ The festive character is said to fly around on a broomstick delivering gifts to children. In Iceland children leave their shoes under the window for 13 trolls called ‘Yule Lads’. If the children have been good, they would find sweets in their shoes, but if they were bad there would be a rotten potato in their shoes!
