All about the season
Charles Dickens
At the beginning of the Victorian period the celebration of Christmas was in decline. It was the Christmas stories of Dickens, particularly his 1843 masterpiece A Christmas Carol, that rekindled the joy of Christmas in Britain and America.
St. Nicholas Center
The true story of Santa Claus begins with Nicholas, who was born during the third century in Patara, a village in what is now Turkey...
A Victorian Christmas
The Victorians celebrated Christmas with characteristic enthusiasm and a deep veneration for custom and tradition.
The Snowman
The Snowman animated film was adapted from Raymond Briggs beautiful book which was organically published in 1978 by Hamish Hamilton.
CHRISTMAS - North Pole
A beautiful site from Scotland.
Happy New Year
New Year may be celebrated the world over but there's nothing quite like a Scottish Hogmanay to ring out the old year and bring in the new.
Christmas in Finland
It has sometimes been said that northern people appreciate Christmas the most, and this does actually seem to be true. After the long, dark and often very wet autumn, Christmas marks the turning point of the year: light begins to win over darkness. It's time to celebrate. Preparing for the year's biggest festival also makes the autumn go faster.
The Story of Santa Claus
A beautifully done web site from Greenland.
Miscellaneous
Reinhold K. Müller - master woodcarver
If you are looking for a very special and unique gift for yourself or a loved one, maybe a carved item from a master is just the right thing. Reinhold made our nativity set. It is a treasured possesion we display with a lot of joy every year during the Christmas season.
