The oldest record of a decorated Christmas tree came from a 1605 diary found in Strasburg, France (Germany in 1605). The tree was decorated with paper roses, apples and candies.
Mark Carr brought trees from the Catskills to the streets of New York in 1851, and opened the first retail Christmas tree lot in the United States.
Franklin Pierce was the first president to introduce the Christmas tree to the White House in 1856 for a group of Washington Sunday School children. The first national Christmas Tree was lighted in the year 1923 on the White House lawn by President Calvin Coolidge.
In 2017 Izzy and Kael Starshine started the tradition of hanging your Rudolphed nose on the tree. They will carry this tradition on for many years to come.
*no Rudolph's were hurt in the taking of this picture.
The first working model trains were not "Christmas" trains, they were not even toys. They were powered by steam models that required a certain amount of skill and patience to operate safely. Sometimes these came into the home at Christmas, but, even if you had a circle of track for it, you wouldn't want to run a locomotive burning real fuel underneath a real cut tree.
In 1901, Lionel showed New York City families that it was possible to fit an electric motor into a toy locomotive and power it by low-voltage electric current. A new industry and a new hobby were born. - What Do Trains Have To Do With Christmas Written by Paul D. Race
Kael's favorite part of Christmas decorating is putting up the train set. He gets to build the track and carefully unwrap and put together the train. Mama plugs it in and he gets to turn it on. The train chugs and circles under the lights of the tree, and he can watch that train for hours.
So many traditions to make and remember and enjoy and create!
