Christmas
Christmas is celebrated in Britain on December 25th as the religious holiday marking the birth of Jesus Christ. On Christmas Eve, some British people attend midnight mass in churches, where Christmas carols are sung. Children are told that Santa Claus will deliver presents down the chimney if they are good, with gifts left in stockings hung by the fireplace. Traditional Christmas foods include turkey dinner and Christmas pudding, as homes are decorated with lights, trees and evergreens like holly and mistletoe.
