Holidays Around the World: Canada

I always get really excited when we are in the Canadian pavilion of the World Showcase because the shopping area is just so beautiful! I don't know, it just really makes me happy!


The Northwest Mercantile had some cute Hatley sleepwear for the holidays!

In Canada, you can explore the holiday customs on a musical tour of the Great White North with the Canadian Holiday Voyageurs! We only caught a little bit of their show one day. We, unfortunately, were trying to see like 6 shows in 30 minutes, and they all started within 5 minutes of each other, so we had to continue running around the world. That's what happens when you wait until the last day to see all the shows. Oops! Hehe!



They had their special holiday food at the Popcorn in Canada stand. It was a Pecan Maple Bark. How good does that sound?! Unfortunately, we didn't get to try it. But here is a great picture of it from my most favorite site ever, Disney Food Blog!

I love reading the little scrolls with some Holiday traditions listed out. Canada shares some of the same traditions as we do in the US, but they also have other cool traditions! In some Canadian homes, Santa will get the help of little devilish creatures called Belsnicklers to determine whether children have been naughty or nice. If Belsnicklers enter the home, that means the children have been naughty, and they go in to cause mischief!


Canada's cute little stamp in my book was a little ornament with a maple leaf. So Canadian!


I'm excited to keep sharing these adventures with you! The United Kingdom is up next!
