There's plenty to stress over when you're a teenager, but at least you still really get into the spirit of Christmas. Apparently, fourteen is the magic age. That's when your Christmas spirit peaks. Maybe we have less Christmas spirit as we age because we don't participate in the cool traditions we did as kids. Here are four Christmas traditions that aren't as popular as they used to be:

1. Going door-to-door singing Christmas carols.
2. Making a gingerbread house.
3. Drinking eggnog.
4. Hanging mistletoe.

Do you still take part in these activities? Merry Christmas!
