We explore how Santa Claus became a more prominent figure in the festive season, and how he began to merge with the figure of Father Christmas. We also delve into the history of Boxing Day, the tradition of cleaning the house, and other customs such as the bringing in of the new year and the singing of \"Auld Lang Syne\". Additionally, we explore the role of games, costumes, and riddles in Georgian Christmas celebrations and how these traditions have evolved over time.\n
