Google started the practice of wishing its customers on important occasions with a variety of doodles in 1998. In 1999, the search engine began its pre-Christmas doodle series called 'Winter Holidays.'
Google rechristened its Christmas time doodles as Happy Holidays doodle, instead of 'Winter Holidays,' in 2006. After the name change, the Christmas doodles got a festive and holiday look in design. It became more colorful, representing celebrations and festival season.
The Winter Holidays doodle has images of Snow, Snow man, Penguins and Polar bears.
