What decoration is usually put on the top of Christmas trees in America?

Answer

In America, we put an angel or a star at the top of our Christmas tree.

Since the United States is a very big country, some people will be celebrating Christmas Day in the snow while other people will be exchanging gifts on a sunny beach.

We call Father Christmas, Santa Claus.

In anticipation of Santa's visit, American children listen to their parents read "The Night Before Christmas" before they go to bed on Christmas Eve. Clement Moore wrote the poem in 1823.

In Alaska, a small town called the North Pole was designed for Santa Claus. There is a post office, a church and a blacksmith shop, to repair the shoes of the reindeer.

In Washington D.C. a huge, spectacular tree is lit ceremoniously when the President presses a button and turns on the tree's lights.

In New Orleans, a huge ox is paraded around the streets decorated with holly and with ribbons tied to its horns.
