Why is there Santa Claus at Christmas?
Santa Claus is one of the most recognizable symbols of the Christmas season. He is believed to bring presents to good children on Christmas Eve, and his red suit and long white beard conjure up the image of a jolly old man who loves nothing more than spreading joy in the world.
Santa Claus is a popular character in many cultures around the world, but he is most associated with Christmas. There are various stories as to why Santa Claus was chosen to bring joy to children at Christmas. One of the most popular stories tells of Saint Nicholas, a fourth-century Greek bishop who secretly left gifts for the poor. Soon after his death in AD 343, people began to believe that Saint Nicholas would visit their homes and leave gifts for them every year on December 6th – now known as Saint Nicholas Day or “Sinterklaas” in Dutch culture. This eventually evolved into Santa Claus, who brings joy to people all over the world on December 25th - Christmas Day!
