Christmas+and+New+Years+in+Russia

While researching, answer the following questions about the Holiday you have selected:

Who celebrates this holiday? Why do they celebrate this holiday? What foods are traditionally prepared during this holiday? What decorations are traditionally seen during this holiday? Are gifts given during this holiday? When are gifts given? Who brings the gifts? Where are gifts left? What might happen to a child who does not behave during this holiday? What is a phrase in their language you would hear said during this holiday? What special colors are traditionally used during this holiday? What games do people play during this holiday? What songs are traditionally sung during this holiday? Are there special activities in the community during this holiday? Is family an important part of this holiday? Is there anything that people shouldn’t do during this holiday?

While researching it's important to keep in mind that not every question will have an answer.
