Well this is so common and sadly so true. Our housing community celebrates all festivals irrespective of religion. Anyways in India Christmas is popular as a festival among kids coz of Santa, chocolates and gifts.
But when my kids Christian, Muslim friends would come over for casual play and we would offer something during festivals they wouldn't accept saying we don't celebrate this festival. Such things make us wonder why the responsibility of being secular n inclusive rests only on few shoulders.
This is in recent years but had many such experiences earlier too as I studied in a convent college
