Why do people make houses?

The tradition began after the Grimm brothers published their fairy tale stories about the wicked witch with the house made of gingerbread. in the 17th Century, only professional bakers were allowed to produce gingerbread -- except during Christmas and Easter, when anyone was allowed to try baking it. So it became associated with the two holidays, but nowadays most people only make the houses at Christmas.
