Do Americans celebrate Christmas or January 1 for New Year's Day

The American New Year is Christmas.

Christmas is a major Christian holiday, celebrated on December 25 every year, commemorating the birth of Jesus Christ, and is also a universally celebrated secular holiday. Christmas has a reunion feast, burning large pieces of firewood, tasting large wood-shaped cakes, hanging branches, fir trees, visit friends and relatives, gifts and other celebratory activities.

Fire and lights, symbolizing warmth and longevity, have always been part of winter holiday celebrations, in both Christian and non-Christian practices. Evergreens symbolize the struggle for survival.? Westerners use red, green and white as the Christmas colors, and homes are decorated with Christmas colors when Christmas comes. The red ones are Christmas flowers and Christmas candles.

The green one is the Christmas tree. It is the main decoration of Christmas, and is made of tower-shaped evergreen trees, such as cedar and cypress, which are cut down. It is decorated with colorful lights, gifts and paper flowers and lit with Christmas candles. Red against white is Santa Claus, the most popular figure at Christmas events. Before going to bed on Christmas Eve, children in the West place a stocking in front of the fireplace or next to their pillows and wait for Santa Claus to put presents inside the stocking after they fall asleep. It is also a custom in the West to play Santa Claus.
