He was in the temple reading and debating scripture with the rabbis and elders.
When Jesus was twelve years old he accompanied His parents to Jerusalem to celebrate the Passover. When the celebration was over his parents left for home and assumed that Jesus was with others in the party. When it was discovered that Jesus was not among them they returned to Jerusalem to find Him. He was found in the Temple sitting among the teachers listening to them and asking them questions. When His parents asked why He had stayed behind He answered, "Did you not know that I must be about My Father's business"? This is found in Luke 2:41-50.

Absolutely! Jehovah's Witnesses believe in the entire inspired scriptures. And, because Jesus was a Jew, he celebrated it himself (so it was being celebrated for 15 centuries by the time of Jesus Christ). The Passover liberated the Israelites from bondage to the Egyptians. And so, today, Jehovah's Witnesses observe annually the memorial of Jesus death on the date corresponding to Nisan 14 (the date Jesus observed the Passover and ended in the death of Jesus Christ).
None of any substance. Some may point to His 12th year visit to Jerusalem when the family left without Him. He was in the Temple doing His Father's work.
