People will even wear more red and green\nclothing during the Christmas holidays and you might see sweaters with\nfantastic Xmas designs.&nbsp; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many states in America have snow during the winter so people will go out and play. They might build a snowman, have a snowball fight, or just lie down in the snow to make the shape of an angel. On the night before Xmas, or Xmas eve, many kids leave a plate of cookies and a glass of milk next to their xmas tree for Santa.\u00a0 And many families like to take their little kids to see Santa at department stores.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You\u2019ll also hear lots of Xmas songs just about everywhere. There are traditional songs like O Holy Night which talks about the birth of the baby Jesus and then there are more modern Christmas songs like All I Want for Xmas is You by Mariah Carey.\u00a0 There may even be carollers or people who get together in a group and sing xmas songs in public. There will be special shows on TV like the Xmas favourites the 1964 Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer stop motion animated movie and the the 1969 Frosty the Snowman cartoon. There might even be a Christmas parade in town for you to watch. The Christmas season is a time of\nGIVING so people give each other presents. It is also is a time for\nfamily.&nbsp; In the US, people will travel\nlong distances to have Christmas dinner with their families and open presents\neither on Christmas Eve December 24 or on Christmas Day December 25.&nbsp; And there are lots of tasty treats that you\nonly see during Xmas like gingerbread men or gingerbread cookies and candy\ncanes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With all the presents, decorations,\nsongs, yummy things to eat, and Xmas activities, people can\u2019t help but be happy\nduring this time of the year.&nbsp; So if you\nare in the US during Xmas, don\u2019t stay indoors.
