Christmas Traditions at the White House - a podcast by DC by Foot
from 2020-12-26T12:04:32
"But really, most of what I think the average American Family associates with Christmas or the Holiday Season is a 20th century invention, so we don't have a lot of records of early Presidents throwing these big shindigs because that's not what Americans did back then. But because the White House is a family home....we've had families celebrating the holidays there, going all the way back to 1800."
Tour Guide Tell All is getting into the holiday spirit by sharing the history of Christmas at the White House! Learn about how different holiday traditions began and what to expect if you ever visit the people’s house during the holidays!
