Let me tell you a little bit about the traditions.
Why is it called that?
It is named in honor of Saint Nicholas-a man who lived many centuries ago, helped the poor, protected children, and secretly gave gifts to those in need.🥰

The celebration has endured because people wanted to remember his good deeds and learn to be generous, caring, and helpful toward others.🌟

Curious about something? WHY ARE THE GIFTS PLACED UNDER THE PILLOW? 🍬
According to legend, Nicholas would secretly leave gifts for people, ensuring they wouldn't even know who had performed the kind act. That is where the tradition comes from: children fall asleep, and in the morning, they find sweets or little gifts under their pillows.

I’m curious-did you know about this holiday? And do you have a favorite holiday of your own?
