"Christmas time is here again, and with it the annual flurry of holiday parties, nonstop carols and cookies galore.

A new poll carried out by Ipsos aimed to pin down Americans’ perceptions of the holiday and covered a range of topics from Christmas songs to decorations.

Among the findings, responses showed more than a fifth of American adults say they believe in Santa Claus, who — according to tradition — brings gifts to children who’ve been good and coal to those who’ve been bad each year on Christmas Eve.

Around half of American children also believe in Father Christmas, poll results show. But despite the enduring legacy of St. Nick — or Kris Kringle — many Americans feel the country has forgotten the real meaning of the holiday."
