The 24th is Christmas for Danes. There's no such thing as opening gifts christmas morning. After dinner on the 24th the entire family opens presents together - one at a time, thanking each other and participating in each other's joy. But before we do this we have one tradition that is the peak of christmas to us: dancing around the tree.
This might seem odd, but it's just a matter of holding each other's hands forming a circle around the tree and the walking slowly while singing 5-10 classic carols together. They're such extraordinary serene minutes, walking around the beautiful Christmas Tree while forming a circle of your loved ones. In some families Santa Claus participates, that is if the kids called him in from the garden...
Merry Christmas from Denmark.
