Peppermint sticks or canes were given to children during church services to keep them quiet on Christmas. The treat served as a distraction and incentive for children to remain quiet and well-behaved during the service.
The story goes that a priest came up with the idea to keep children quiet during Christmas services at church.
Sunday school is more of a deeper talk and is usually held before the actual gathering time. Children's church is usually during the service and is for children which Sunday school could be for grown ups

Christmas church plays are theatrical performances held in churches during the Christmas season. They often depict the story of the birth of Jesus Christ, incorporating elements such as songs, scriptures, and dramatic reenactments to convey the message of Christmas. These plays are a way for church communities to come together and celebrate the meaning of Christmas through creative expression.

The Christmas tree was first. Martin Luther in the mid 16th Century is thought to be the first to decorate an indoor tree. The first candy canes -- all white sugar candy in the shape of a shepherd's staff -- were handed out to children at Christmas in Germany in 1670 during a long church service. Interestingly enough, candy canes were used to decorate trees shortly thereafter.
