: Someone mentioned to me that I should pack away my decorations because "Little Christmas" was this past weekend. I politely nodded not knowing what in the world he was talking about. Has anyone heard of this?

January 6 is the 12th day of Christmas and the traditional day to take down the tree. Little Christmas, I think, is also on January 6. My understanding is that Little Christmas is the Ukranian Christmas. It sounds like your friend has combined the two events.
