Latvian Christmas traditions include eating nine times on Christmas Day and peas on Christmas Eve according to superstitions about wealth in the new year. People also dress in masks and parade between houses during Christmas, decorate their homes for Advent and the holiday, wake early on Christmas morning believing it ensures not oversleeping throughout the year, write letters to Santa Claus, decorate Christmas trees, and wait for gifts from Santa Claus while reciting poems to celebrate the holiday season.
