One of the States With Most Christmas Spirit is In New England

You talk about being a kid in a candy store, but when it comes to holiday magic and a boatload of activities happening, there's one state in New England that's hard to beat.

Sure, all of New England looks like a postcard after the first bit of snow, but being pretty is not enough.

Bah Humbug!

Pennlive.com's most recent survey gives us a little insight.  This is where we find out Pennsylvania is the state that believes the least in Santa.

Why does this matter to New Englanders?  Because Massachusetts is the 2nd highest ranked state to be skeptical about Santa Claus, and the other New England states were not far behind.

Mele Kalikimaka is the thing to say...

Which state believes in the big guy the most?  That would be Hawaii, the land of sunshine.

Here's where it gets very interesting.  The Bay State may be curiously unsure about Mr. Claus, however this state ranked 2nd highest for the most Christmas spirit in America, according to preply.com.

Sleigh bells, shining lights, hot cocoa, well-decorated trees, holiday cookies, Christmas markets, shows and concerts, decorations on the streets, these are all shining examples of the classic New England holiday spirit which brings great joy to all.

Many people in other parts of the country and world believe New England always has a white Christmas, but we don't.  In fact, I think there have been more non-snowy December 25ths than snowy ones.

We are just happy we can compete with the rest of the country, since from 1659-1681, Christmas was banned in Massachusetts!
