Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Which of these is a cold, white substance, that usually appears during weather around Christmas time (for people who live in the northern hemisphere) or is used in decoration?

Answer: snow

Snow is usually a part of the weather at Christmas time in many areas in the northern half of the world. However, some places that don't have snow still use snow as a decoration around Christmas time.
2. This man is making a list of every boy and girl's wish. Which of these is a man in a red suit, known for his laugh and white beard?

Answer: Santa Claus

Santa Claus, also known as St. Nicholas, is known for bringing gifts to good girls and boys on Christmas Eve. He is usually portrayed as a jolly man with a big laugh and white beard. Many stores have Santa visits around Christmas time so boys and girls can tell him what they want most for Christmas. Tradition says that if they are good, Santa will bring them presents for Christmas. If they are bad, they get a lump of coal in their stockings.
3. Christmas time celebrates a religious birthday as well. Which of these is a Christmas set of dolls and figures representing the birth of Jesus?

Answer: nativity scene

For Christians, Christmas is the celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ. Nativity scenes are set up around Christmas time to remind people of Christ's birth in a stable. They usually consist of a stable, wise men, shepherds, and animals centered around the figures of Joseph, Mary, and baby Jesus.
4. These are bright and colorful objects that light up the night around Christmas time. Which of these do many people hang up around the outside of their house for Christmas decoration?

Answer: stringed lights

Stringed lights are very decorative around Christmas. Many people decorate the outside of their houses with them. Sometimes stringed lights can also be put around trees in the yard, bushes, or around metal designs to light up characters for the Christmas season.
5. Which of these is a red-colored plant that blooms around Christmas time?

Answer: poinsettia

Poinsettias are also nicknamed "Christmas stars". They are native to Mexico and Central America and bloom in the winter time. According to one legend, one little girl had no gift to give baby Jesus. She was told even the smallest gift would make Jesus happy. So she went out and picked a bundle of weeds.

She was embarrassed that it was all she could give, but when she gave them to Jesus they burst into a bouquet of red flowers.
6. This green object sometimes comes in many other colors too. Which of these is decorated with lights and ornaments, and often has presents underneath?

Answer: Christmas tree

In history, people would decorate their Christmas trees with burning candles. However this tradition became a fire hazard. Today most people decorate their trees with electric lights and ornaments. Presents are traditionally left under the tree for Christmas morning.
7. This striped object is quite a treat. Which of these is a candy stick that is traditionally red and white with a taste of peppermint?

Answer: Candy cane

Candy canes are a traditional Christmas candy that started in Germany. They are usually a peppermint flavor with a red and white design. A Christian legend around the candy cane is that it is shaped like a J to represent "Jesus". When it is held the opposite direction it reminds people of a shepherd's staff, like the ones the shepherds had on the day Christ was born.

The white represents Christ's purity and the red stripes represent his sacrifice on Calvary.
8. What green plant decoration do some people receive a Christmas kiss under?

Answer: mistletoe

Mistletoe is regarded as a symbol of good luck for romantic couples. It is hung usually in the ceiling, decorate with ribbons. Tradition says that if a girl is kissed underneath the mistletoe then she can expect a happy marriage in her life. If she is not kissed it is bad luck. Many parties have fun seeing who will receive a Christmas kiss under the mistletoe for Christmas.
9. These happy people are singing around people's houses and shopping centers. What is the traditional name for people that sing Christmas songs?

Answer: carolers

Carols are songs of joy and praise. People who sing them around Christmas time are known as carolers. Many carolers will sing for charity drives or for fun to entertain shoppers at malls and stores. Some groups also go to places that provide for people in need, such as shelters, nursing homes, and orphanages. Songs usually bring these people lots of holiday cheer!
10. What are the musical instruments that sometimes ring on Christmas day?

Answer: bells

Many churches ring bells in celebration of holidays. For Christmas, they traditionally will ring bells for Christmas eve and Christmas morning to celebrate the birth of Christ. Sometimes they also ring them for Christmas services.
