The history of Christmas dates back over 4000 years.Many of our Christmas traditions were celebrated centuries before Jesus Christ was born.Every family gathers together at Christmas time to exchange gifts and spend the holiday season with one another.It is a time of giving and spreading Christmas cheer.Christmas celebrates the story of Santa Claus,a fat,bearded man who wears red and carries gifts throughout the world for all well-behaved boys and girls.The Santa Claus story,combined with an amazing retailing phenomenon that has grown in the past century,has made gift giving a central focus of the Christmas tradition.
