101 Best Christmas Gift Ideas for Mom In 2022

Andy Williams was right when he said: "Its the most wonderful time of the year." No one can deny that.
The lights, the snow, the gifts and what not. The atmosphere around you gets better on its own. The people around you become nicer, friends, family, your colleagues, your classmates, and whatnot.
So what is the reason behind the happiest time of the year? The time of the year which automatically makes everything better. Let's look into that.

What’s with Christmas and Presents ?

The tradition of going with presents to your loved ones actually has historical evidence. This can be traced back to the days way back before Jesus was born. Several communities like the Nords used to have a Winter solstice festival in which the ritual of gifting was very prevalent.

Eventually, Christianity adopted this tradition too. The Bible cites the reason behind this tradition of that of Magi or the Three Wise Men. The Magi brought gifts of Frankincense, gold, and myrrh to baby Jesus in the manger, to show their respect towards the baby Jesus. So now the Christians do the same by giving presents to their close ones.

The another modern-day interpretation might be that since it's Jesus's birthday and any sorts of material presents cannot be presented to him, people tend to exchange gifts with each other
