I gcuid mór tíortha, is ar Fhéile Naoimh Niocláis a thugtar na bronntanasaí. Ina leithéid d´áiteanna, mar san [[Ísiltír]] agus go leor den [[an Ghearmáin|nGearmáin]], fágtar gur mó d´fhéile creidimh an Nollaig féin. Ach in Éireann sa sean-saol, agus i dtíortha eile ar nós codanna den Ghearmáin, ba é an leanbh Íosa a bhíodh ag fágáil na mbronntanas.

====Tabhairt bronntanasaí agus cártaí====
 
Tugtar bronntanasaí i mbeagnach gach áit ina gceiliúrtar an Nollaig. I go leor tíortha, fágann leanaí soithí folmha [[Oíche Nollag]] le go líonfadh Daidí na Nollag le féiríní beaga iad, ar nós bréagáin, milseáin nó torthaí. I [[SAM]], crochann leanaí [[stoca Nollag]] ar an dtinteán, mar go dtagann Daidí na Nollag anuas an simléir an oíche sin le iad a líonadh. I dtíortha eile, fágann leanaí bróga folmha amuigh ag feitheamh lena chuairt. Ach ní hé Daidí na Nollag amháin a bhronann féiríní, mar go mbíonn bronntanais ag cairde agus ag muintir dá chéile.
Gift-giving is a near-universal part of Christmas celebrations. In many countries, children leave empty containers on [[Christmas Eve]] for Santa to fill with small gifts such as toys, candy, or fruit. In the [[United States]], children hang a [[Christmas stocking]] by the fireplace, because Santa is said to come down the chimney the night before Christmas to fill them. In other countries, children place their empty shoes out for Santa's visit. The gift giving is not restricted to Santa, as family members and friends also bestow gifts to eachother.
 
Tá an-tábhacht ag [[cártaí Nollag]] i SAM, in Éirinn agus sa Bhreatain, go minic le cairdeas a choinneáil le gaolta agus le cairde i bhfad i gcéin, maille le daoine a dhéanann gnó le chéile. Tugann a lán pictiúr an chlainne leis an gcárta, agus uaireanta airgead nó nuachtlitir a thugann a n-éachtaí agus a n-aistir ar feadh na bliana.
[[Christmas card]]s are extremely popular in the United States, in part as a way to maintain relationships with distant relatives and friends, and with business acquaintances. Many families enclose an annual family photograph with the card, cash, and/or a family newsletter which summarizes the adventures and accomplishments of family members during the preceding year.

Decorating a [[Christmas tree]] with [[Christmas lights]] and [[Christmas ornaments]], and the decoration of the interior of the home with garlands and [[evergreen]] foliage, particularly [[holly]] and [[mistletoe]], are common traditions. In North America and to a lesser extent the United Kingdom, it is traditional to decorate the outside of houses with large numbers of lights, sometimes including illuminated sleighs, snowmen and other Christmas figures.

* The date of Christmas is based on the date of [[Good Friday]], the day Jesus died. Since the exact date of Jesus' death is not stated in the Gospels, early Christians sought to calculate it, and arrived at either March 25 or April 6. To then calculate the date of Jesus' birth, they followed the ancient idea that Old Testament prophets died at an "[[integral age]]"&mdash;either an anniversary of their birth or of their conception. They reasoned that Jesus died on an anniversary of the [[Incarnation]] (his conception), so the date of his birth would have been nine months after the date of Good Friday&mdash;either December 25 or January 6. Thus, rather than the date of Christmas being appropriated from pagans by Christians, the opposite is held to have occurred. [See Duchesne (1902) and Talley (1986).]
