My family is not Christian but do celebrate the holidays and have the tradition of exchanging gifts. We do so on the Winter Solstice as that date has spiritual significance for us. We will be exchanging gifts with friends and family from December 20th to December 22nd this year along with three nights of feasting and merriment.
On the subject of a tree, we do place one up and it is usually an artificial tree. We however do decorate with a lot of free pine, holly and mistletoe. No poinsettas so we don't kill the cats though.
