HISTORY OF THE CHRISTMAS TREE

The time your children spend coloring is a great piece of time for talking and teaching lessons..

How about giving them some history and facts about Christmas trees while they work on a Christmas coloring worksheet?

Here are some great bits of information about the history of the Christmas tree.

  • Evergreens are traced all the way back to ancient Egypt and Rome.
  • People liked evergreen trees because they stayed green all year long including during the winter.
  • There were many different traditions and rituals surrounding the winter solstice that involved evergreen boughs during ancient times.
  • Christmas trees are actually grown in all 50 states in the US.
  • Germany gets the credit for starting the tradition of the Christmas tree that evolved into what we have now. In the 16th century Christians brought decorated trees into their homes.
  • German immigrants are said to have brought the tradition of the Christmas tree to American in the 1830’s. Many people felt the tree was “pagan” and it took a while for it to be widely accepted as a symbol of Christmas.
  • In 1846 Queen Victoria had a Christmas tree and it suddenly became accepted and fashionable and that spread to America.

DECORATE A KIDS’ CHRISTMAS TREE

  • Disney character tree
