This is one of the Winter Solstices celebrations in France. It is similar to Christmas but contains different traditions, such as burning a log for good luck. It was interesting because I didn't know that there was a story behind why they celebrate Christmas. Did you know that the children leave shoes by the fire place so that Saint Nicholas can bring treats and gifts?
I can see lots of new learning in your post. Great to see you using more than one source for your information.
