The most thrilling part of Christmas for many American kids, especially those who have done well all year, is finding wrapped presents placed under the tree and treats concealed in stockings hung by the fireplace. Children are sometimes informed that Santa Claus left the gifts during his yearly, nighttime trip around the globe in a sleigh drawn by nine flying reindeer. How is it that this tale has been accepted by so many?
Whether or not you think that the jolly old elf who leaves gifts in every child’s house through the chimney is a real person, the Dutch colonists are responsible for the mythology and the gift-giving custom. They carried their Sinterklaas tale and the tradition of leaving presents for kids on the night of December 6 when they immigrated to what is now New York City in the 17th century. From there, Sinterklaas was changed from a holy bishop into the white-bearded, red-capped Santa Claus that Americans are familiar with today by such 19th-century literary works as the poem known as The Night Before Christmas and a mid-20th-century Coca-Cola ad campaign.
