Barack Obama

Well, can I say this? Can I say this, little guys?

Barack Obama

I think one thing that's important to remember...

Barack Obama

..is that...

Barack Obama

You know, even though there's a lot of fun to Christmas...

Barack Obama

...especially when it's snowy like this...

Barack Obama

...so it's pretty outside. You got the Christmas tree, you got the Christmas cookies,...

Barack Obama

...you got, you got presents.

Barack Obama

You know, I think that...

Barack Obama

...the most important thing is just to remember why we celebrate Christmas,...

Barack Obama

...which is...

Barack Obama

Do you know?

Barack Obama

The birth of Baby Jesus...

Barack Obama

...and the... and what he symbolizes...

Barack Obama

...for people all around the world is...

Barack Obama

...is the possibility of peace...

Barack Obama

...and people treating each other with respect.

Barack Obama

And so, I just hope that spirit of giving...

Barack Obama

...that's so important to Christmas, I hope all of you guys remember that as well.

Barack Obama

You know, it's not just about getting a gift but it's also doing something for other people.

Barack Obama

So, being nice to your mom and dad and grandma and aunties and...

Barack Obama

...showing respect to people.

Barack Obama

That's really important too. That's part of the Christmas spirit, don't you think?

Barack Obama

Do you agree with me?

Barack Obama

You do?

Barack Obama

Okay, do you have an interesting observation?

Kid

I know why we give gifts to other people.

Barack Obama

Why is that?

Kid

'Cause the Three Wise Men gave gifts to Baby Jesus.

Barack Obama

That's exactly right.
