I've never heard the term 'Little Christmas' but knew right away it must be Epiphany. Epiphany is the traditional end of Christmas season over here, too and also the day to put away all Christmas decoration.
Not for me however, I start putting away Christmas decoration sometimes after Epiphany and stretch it out till the end of January. I love my extra lights way too much :laugh:

Hiya Chrissi, over here, Epiphany is sometimes known as "Three Kings Day" or "Little Christmas". This year it's Thursday, so I may keep the stuff up until the weekend after, and use that weekend to take it all down.

Here in Denver the tradition is to keep your Christmas decorations and lights going until the end of the annual Stock Show and Rodeo. This year it ends on January 23.

In German it's called "Heilige Drei K?nige" = three holy kings, but sometimes we also shorten it to Dreik?nigstag = Three Kings Day.
