Product Details
A German-American Tradition The Christmas pickle is a glass ornament in the shape of a pickle that's hidden on a Christmas tree: The tradition: The first child to find the pickle on Christmas morning receives a special treat or gets to open the first gift. The tradition is also said to bring good fortune in the coming year. The origin: The tradition is thought to be German-American, created in the late 19th century. However, a New York Times survey found that 91% of Germans polled were unaware of the legend. The popularity: The tradition is most popular in the Midwest, especially Michigan, where there are many German immigrants. Berrien Springs, Michigan was named the Christmas Pickle Capital of the World. The idea: The idea behind the tradition is to keep kids from rushing through the process of opening presents so they can learn to appreciate each gift. The camouflaging: The pickle is camouflaged against the green needles of the Christmas tree. The rehiding: Some families rehide the pickle on Christmas Eve to prevent cheating.
