   They do the same things as the U.S. They
    decorate their homes with lights and sing songs
    with the family.
• The most popular food that family's eat
  Kentucky fried chicken..yes KFC. They made
  an advertisement saying that’s what western
  people eat for Christmas dinner. The Fathers
  pick up Christmas cake to bring to their
  family's
 Its almost the exact same as how we decorate in
  the U.S. Just more Japanese
style of ornaments
   They have people dress up as Santa at malls
    like we do at the U.S. But their own version is a
    Buddhist monk named Hotei-Osho. He sneaks
    into children’s windows and leaves only one
    present under their pillow.
   Gift giving is the main one. But Japanese tend to be
    treated as a valentine's day by teenagers. This time
    of year is the best time for a man or woman to
    confess their feelings towards someone. Also a best
    time to go on a date due to the amazing lights they
    put up.
   Due to Japan having less than 1% being
    Christian they do not practice any of the
    religion behind Christmas. They only celebrate
    it because it is a extremely fun holiday to
    participate in.
   They do have our songs translated to Japanese.
    Also artists create and sing their own songs for
    the holidays.
