You don't have to stretch Christmas very far to pull Christianity out of it. It's already stretched pretty much as thin as it'll get with commercialism.
As said just let them know it's a time for family, friends, and remembrances. Enjoy the days off from work/school, and make sure they know the tradition around it.
