Unwrap the magic of Christmas one story, symbol, and surprise at a time!

Why do we decorate trees, hang stockings, and wait for Santa every December? Who was the real Saint Nicholas, and what do reindeer, carols, and candy canes have to do with it all? Christmas Unscrambled takes curious kids (and their families) on a festive journey through time -- from ancient winter festivals to modern global traditions. Inside, you'll discover:

• The wild celebrations of Saturnalia, Solstice, and Yule

• The Nativity story and the origins of Christmas Day

• How Victorians gave us carols, cards, and Christmas trees

• The real stories behind Santa Claus and his worldwide cousins

• Christmas around the world, from lanterns in the Philippines to beach barbecues in Australia

• The meaning behind classic symbols like stars, wreaths, and mistletoe

• Delicious festive foods, acts of giving, and new traditions to create at home

Each chapter includes fun facts and engaging activities that bring history and holiday cheer together. Includes a bonus booklet full of puzzles, activities and kid-friendly versions of traditional Christmas recipes from around the world!
