Christmas in Alaska

    It's a snowy Christmas for people living in Alaska! Many people in Alaska celebrate Christmas as people do in the U.S.A.

   Some Alaskan people who have a Russian background celebrate Christmas on January 7th. Their celebration includes a procession called Carrying The Star. For three nights people walk from house to  house carrying tinsel trimmed wheels called stars. The people carrying the stars represent the angels who came to announce the birth of Christ.
