In my (German) family. We open gifts at night on Christmas eve, rather than the morning. We also sing songs before anyone’s allowed to open their gifts.
Conveniently, it helps with splitting Christmas for our American in-laws
In my Swedish American Family, we also open our gifts at night on Christmas Eve. We still put stockings on the Chimney and put little gifts in them so they also get something on Christmas morning. and so they celebrate Christmas twice.

Its supersmart to show our christmas traditions with clips from the 1960th. VERY clever. 🥱
We're not quite sure we're following along just yet. Would you care to elaborate?

No problem. The description states that this video will show German Christmas traditions. At 0:56 we show pictures from 1960. That's fine, because it's always nice to see impressed children. But at 1:01 and 1:45 we see scenes from 1952 and 1958 about the Christmas shooting.
I'm 57 and lived in Bavaria for a few years, but I've never heard of this tradition. If you want to share information with others, it is better to show pictures from today. If you use older images, it's helpful to comment. Is this tradition still celebrated or is it a tradition that was celebrated years ago?

Es ist wie an Weihnachten, man weiß nicht, ob man ein schönes Geschenk oder ein Paar Unterwäsche bekommt
Ich hoffe, ihr Kinder erkennt, was für eine alberne Ressourcenverschwendung das ist
