The difference between the northern and southern hemisphere
The biggest difference between the northern and southern hemisphere at Christmas time is the weather. In the northern hemisphere it is winter while in the southern it is summer. This results in people in the northern hemisphere to more likely to go to bed early and in the southern hemisphere to stay up later. Another difference that people are seeing more of is that in the southern hemisphere people are using fake Christmas trees while in the northern they are still using real ones. Due to the different seasons even the presents can be different. In the southern hemisphere because it is summertime you are more likely to get something for the outside like a cricket set. In the northern hemisphere you probably aren't going to get that because of the wet weather and the snow and you don't really play cricket in those conditions.
