They hide brooms to keep away witches. I hide brooms because my dogs clean up everything on the floor anyway.

answer to day 1....wow you are all good at this
Norway on Christmas Eve, visitors should know that after the family's big dinner and the opening of presents, all the brooms in the house are hidden. The Norwegians long ago believed that witches and mischievous spirits came out on Christmas Eve and would steal their brooms for riding.

True.
America's official national Christmas tree is not located at the White House, but rather in King's Canyon National Park near Sanger, California. The tree, a giant sequoia known as the General Grant Tree, was designated the "Nation's Christmas Tree" in 1925.

True
I feel kind of weird answering questions that someone else already answered, it feels like I am peeking at his exam paper.
But, I will take the points anyway. LOL

True : The official tree stands 267 feet tall in California's Sierra Nevada Mountains. It is a giant sequoia named General Grant etc - See more at: http://www.chacha.com/question/where-is-america%27s-official-christ...
This one is a tricky one as so many are claimed to be the National , official tree but the gov. considers this one to be it.
