Santa Claus is a legendary person sending a present at night before Christmas.Do you know how he appeared? A Christian Church Father, Nicolaus of legendbecome the basis.One day he knew the existence of a very poor family. He visited their house at the midnight. And he threw a gold coin from the chimney of the house. Socks were hung on a fireplace then. On this account the gold coin was in the socks. There is such an anecdote. The customs to put a present in in socks come from here. I knew this story for the first time. Did you know it?

I heard it for the first time, too. When it was said so, I did not understand it why Santa put a present in socks. I heard this story, and my feeling became warm. Thank you.
