Christmas gifts are brought to children byJesus. Family gifts are put under the Christmas Tree. A common tradition is that the children have to leave the room when the presents are being brought by Jesus. The children then run to the Christmas Tree to try and see the Jesus but they always narrowly miss him! Then the present are opened.
