Learn about the history of Christmas Customs with iMindsJNR audio learning series for younger minds. Christmas trees and Christmas cards seem to be an essential part of the holiday season. So it may surprise you to know they are both relatively recent traditions in the USA and Britain!

The Christmas tree has its origins in Germany. The husband of Britain’s Queen Victoria brought the tradition to England when he moved there in 1840. But where did the German tradition come from? Many stories claim to explain this. One tradition states the medieval St Boniface used the evergreen tree to symbolize Jesus as the ‘tree of life’.

Reseñas editoriales

In bright and cheery tones, actress Jude Beaumont offers a short but sweet sampling of stories behind the most beloved Christmas traditions: trees, cards, and carols. This is a delightful listen that’s well-suited for young and inquiring minds who wonder why we celebrate the holiday as we do, and parents might find themselves picking up some new tidbits, too. Overall, the most surprising lesson here is just how young many of our seasonal "traditions" really are. Light seasonal music adds sparkle to the performance.

"I'm learning all sorts of stuff about stuff I didn't even know I didn't know. And it sticks. In a nutshell: wonderful." (Jonathon Margolis, Financial Times)

This five minute short by iMinds is great introduction to the customs that most of us celebrate during Christmas. It is widely agreed that the tradition of the Christmas tree began in Germany and then slowly spread to other European countries. Protestant reformer, Martin Luther added lit candles to an evergreen tree in the late 1500s. Britain did not begin the custom until the 1800s, when German-born Queen Charlotte introduced a Christmas tree at a party. Christmas carols began much earlier in the 13th century. And Christmas cards got their start in England in 1843 and have spread throughout the world, growing in popularity. Fun listen!

Christmas is celebrated every year with Christmas tree, greeting cards and Christmas carols. Nice to know how these present Christmas customs originated, became popular and then became the integral part of the culture. Interesting to know the history!
