Pedro Pinheiro and Vasco José wrote a report for their 11th grade class at ESSA school about how Christmas is typically spent in Portugal. They explained that Christmas in Portugal is usually spent with family and friends. Gifts are opened either at midnight on Christmas Eve or the following day, depending on family traditions. Typical Christmas foods in Portugal include codfish, cooked eggs, and potatoes, though turkey is also sometimes eaten. The report aimed to provide insight into how Portuguese people generally celebrate Christmas.
