Families across the country have kept customs that date back centuries, and many of those customs still shape the holiday today. The season grows slowly from late November through early January. People decorate their homes, visit outdoor markets, attend church events, prepare special meals, and spend time with their loved ones. Each part of France adds its own touch. Some regions hold on to older customs. Others mix older habits with new ones. Together, these pieces form a season that has become an essential part of French life. <p class= "block-editor-rich-text__editable block-editor-block-list__block wp-block wp-block-paragraph rich-text" role="document" contenteditable="true" aria-multiline="true" aria-label="Block: Paragraph" data-block= "28912c29-423e-44aa-b5ad-e5ffce119d3f" data-type="core/paragraph" data-title="Paragraph" data-empty="false" data-wp-block-attribute-key="content">The feeling of the season begins during Advent. Towns decorate streets with lights. Homes bring out small displays and decorations passed down through the years. Outdoor markets open in many regions, giving people places to walk, shop, and enjoy food made for the colder months. Children take part in simple activities, such as opening Advent calendars with small treats inside. Parents prepare for the coming weeks by planning meals, visiting shops, and gathering ingredients that appear only during this time of year. <p class= "block-editor-rich-text__editable block-editor-block-list__block wp-block wp-block-paragraph rich-text" role="document" contenteditable="true" aria-multiline="true" aria-label="Block: Paragraph" data-block= "28912c29-423e-44aa-b5ad-e5ffce119d3f" data-type="core/paragraph" data-title="Paragraph" data-empty="false" data-wp-block-attribute-key="content">Advent gives the season a slow start. People take their time. Families look forward to the days ahead. The weather cools, and the streets become brighter. Church bells mark the passing of the weeks. The steps toward Christmas are steady, and each one leads the country toward the most important evening of the season.
