🎁 Christmas Gift Exchange
유래: Europe
The modern tradition of exchanging wrapped gifts on Christmas morning evolved from a combination of the Roman Saturnalia gift-giving custom, the legend of St Nicholas, and 19th-century commercial and literary influences including the writings of Charles Dickens. Children worldwide are told that Father Christmas (Santa Claus) delivers presents overnight via chimney, creating a beloved seasonal mythology. The tradition drives significant economic activity; in the United States alone, Christmas retail spending exceeds $900 billion annually.
