Christmas traditions are what make Christmas Christmas. From the tree to the lights to the very songs we sing there is so much about that holiday that makes it unique and special. But Christmas is so old that many don’t understand why sacred traditions of the season are important or what they mean. That is what we hope to solve with these features of Christmas tradition on My Merry Christmas. Why do we use red and green at Christmas? What is the significance of the Christmas pickle? Who invented eggnog and why? Why do we drag a tree in from the woods and put it up all season? Each tradition of Christmas had a beginning somewhere. It is our job to tell those stories and to help make the traditions of Christmas more clear to those who celebrate it.
