Though Boxing Day owes its origin to the good old U.K., different countries have different meanings.
The day after Christmas is the Boxing Day for the Americans and Aussies.
The Canadian holiday Boxing Day is when the servants were given boxes which had money hidden inside them from their employers.
The Kiwi Boxing day is when you put your old toys into the boxes your new Christmas presents came in and then you take them to an orphanage.
I wonder what the Americans, Australians and the English men do on Boxing Day!
