There's a wide variation in Christmas traditions between families. And, of course, many Americans are Muslim or Jewish, or belong to other groups like Jehovah's Witnesses that don't celebrate Christmas. In the US Christmas is often more a secular holiday than a religious one, which is discouraging to many Christians.

A traditional Christmas celebration would include a Christmas tree with lights and ornaments, and often other decorations such as a wreath or outdoor lights. Christmas is the major retail holiday, and many families have large numbers of brightly wrapped gifts under the tree. Usually there's a large family dinner on Christmas Day with Turkey or Ham as the main course. Christians may attend a church service late on Christmas Eve, or on Christmas Day. (Many will attend church only twice a year, Christmas and Easter.)Hospitality is important to many during the Christmas season and there will be parties through New Year's day.
