As a child, on December 19, I woke up with enthusiasm and hurried to look under the pillow. Do you know what I was looking for? I was looking for sweets there. According to tradition, St. Nicholas hid sweets under the pillow for obedient children at night, and put twigs in shoes for naughty children so that parents could point out that the child behaved badly for a whole year.
I have had different cases. Sometimes I behaved very well for a whole year, and sometimes I was too active and mischievous! I think this is familiar to every child.
As a result, sometimes I received twigs instead of sweets.
It's a nice New Year's Eve tradition for little kids!
By the way, I thought for a long time that Saint Nicholas really gives me gifts, and not my parents.
It was my very first mistake in my life.

I would be glad to receive such a pleasant surprise as an adult and remember my childhood! This is great!
