I love these short videos done by TedEd. I’ve always found the story behind myths, legends, and scripture interesting.

@hckošice do you guys not celebrate on the 25th then? The 24th is Christmas Eve in  

 

Of course, families celebrate on different days/times according to different traditions brought over from Europe or Latin America.

Of course, families celebrate on different days/times according to different traditions brought over from Europe or Latin America. 

We generally celebrate Christmas Three days from 24th to 26th, All 3 days are national Holidays and Day-offs, Offices and Shops closed etc..., As almost everywhere here yes as well, The 25th is called Christmas Day...but the 24th is the most important day, It is called "Generous Day"

 

 

 

 

The families gathers this day from the morning, decorating the Christmas Tree, cooking and preparing the dinner,

the Evening Dinner is the main dish of christmas and once the dinner is eaten, it is time for the gifts (Santa Claus for the modern and "Baby Jesus" for the more traditionalists who arrive ) are presented or placed under the tree for kids After this families usually watch together (Every year the same old Czechoslovak TV classics movies & Fairytales) and later attend the midnight mass.

 

Next 2 days are about eating, visiting distant families, Eating, Watching TV christmas shows and Eating
