In an effort to resolve just such an issue--everyone celebrating
Christmas--the December school program we present has gone from the
theme of "Victorian Christmas" to "Wintertime Celebrations of Many
Cultures."  We share wintertime traditions (food, decorations,
activities, songs, etc.) from the various cultural and ethnic groups
that have been a part of our region's development. Perhaps something
along this line could be incorporated into more inclusive decorations?
