There are some differences, but most Australians do observe Christmas in much the same way as North Americans do.
One major difference is that in the Southern Hemisphere Christmas occurs in summer rather than in winter.
it has a picnic
They do the same things Americans do!!!
What most kids in the world get...toys, money, clothes.

Chinese people who's religion is Christianity,they usually go to a Christmas Mass on Christmas Eve at exactly 12:00 at midnight, just like you do. Chinese who believe in something else, they put up all the Santa and Rudolph stuff, which is NOT the real meaning of Christmas. But, in Taiwan, the kids don't have any holidays, 'coz they don't celebrate Christmas.
Explain to your kids whatChristmas means, Family get together and celebrate the birth of Christ Make cup cakes for the birth of Christ family making dinner together , laugh , talk, sing.
I celebrate Christmas on Christmas Eve with my kids. On Christmas Day, they are at their mom's (my ex-wife) to celebrate. When I was growing up, Christmas Eve was a magical night of expectation. We always had a fire in the fireplace and it was a tradition for all 5 kids to get our pajamas on and crowd around my father as he read "The Night Before Christmas" by Clement Moore. We drank eggnog with nutmeg in it (Mom and Dad's eggnog had rum in it, too). My friend says that his Christmas Eve traditions included everybody sleeping under the Christmas tree. The important thing is to make your own traditions.
Millions of Christians in America (North and South) celebrate Christmas to celebrate the arrival of Jesus Christ. They often have theatrical plays of the story of Jesus birth. They also sing and have great sermons. At home many of them have Christmas trees and exchange gifts....some will donate to the needy too. When the kids do the story of Jesus birth it is really cute and a big blessing. Kids and teens will often sing by themselves (alone or as a chorus) the traditional Christmas songs ... really wonderful when they do. Many churches will have communion on that day too. They often invite neighbors and family members to Church for Christmas. There is usually a festive meal fixed too. In the USA even people who are not Christian believers celebrate Christmas and Hanukkah. Some people just call it a HOLIDAY celebration who are not Christians.
There are many gift box companies in Australia, personally I recommend that box co due to their high quality gift boxes and products
