A star or an angle often crowns the top. Carefully-wrapped gifts are placed beneath. Outside, families often string lights around the windows and wind lights around the trees and shrubs in the front yard. As the families decorate their homes, they often put on Christmas record. Almost every family has at least one favorite album or compact disc. School children of all ages perform Christmas concerts for their parents and communities.
