Jill Biden was booed by kids for saying "Happy Holidays" instead of "Merry Christmas," causing amusement among internet commentators.

On Friday, the first lady hosted the annual Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots campaign at the White House. She greeted everyone with "Happy Holidays," to which multiple children shouted back with emphasis, "Merry Christmas!"

"Happy Christmas," Biden replied. "Yes!"

"During her remarks to military children, she emphasized the importance of remembering one thing: "You are loved." She reminded them that there are countless people who care about them, including their family, friends, teachers, classmates, the president, and her."

She concluded with, "Merry Christmas and happy holidays."
