Carols are festive songs traditionally sung during the Christmas season. They often celebrate themes of joy, peace, and goodwill, reflecting the spirit of the holiday. Carols can be performed by choirs, groups, or individuals, and are commonly heard in homes, churches, and public spaces. Many carols have historical roots, dating back to the Middle Ages, and have been passed down through generations. The practice of singing carols is often associated with Christmas traditions such as caroling, where groups go door-to-door to share songs and spread cheer. Popular carols include "Silent Night," "Jingle Bells," and "O Holy Night." These songs contribute to the festive atmosphere and are enjoyed by people of all ages.
