The song "The 12 Days of Christmas" is a mainstay of the holiday season, but the practice of celebrating Christmas as a twelve-day festival fell out of fashion long ago in most cultures. In Celebrating the 12 Days of Christmas, author Chris Marchand explores the history behind the season and individual feast days from December 25 to January 6, and then offers suggestions for how you can celebrate it with your family, church, or community. Along with this, he provides answers to many of the nagging questions surrounding the holiday, such as the history behind the twelve-days song, why December 25 was chosen as the date, and what to do about its supposedly pagan origins. The challenge before us is to first help people see Christmas as a holiday that begins, rather than ends, on December 25, and then to together figure out how to reinvent Christmas in the present by learning how it was celebrated in the past.

It might seem unbelievable given that the "Christmas creep" now begins before Halloween, but the true Christmas season actually starts on Christmas Day itself. That's right: December 25 marks the official start of the 12 days of Christmas, the Christian tradition that shares its name with a relentlessly stick-in-your-head Christmas carol. In the weeks before Christmas we put up Christmas decorations, Christmas trees adorned with bright tinsel, decorations and lights, we sing Christmas songs and carols and so it's a beautiful, happy, exciting time of the year. We hear The Twelve Days of Christmas wherever we go and sing along with great gusto. But when do the twelve days start and end? Twelve days before Christmas day or twelve after? What do they mean and what are the gifts all about? Find out about the Twelve Days of Christmas in the beautifully written book for children packed with photographs too.
