Summary: Santa Claus, also known as Kris Kringle, Father Christmas or Saint Nicholas, is the legendary mythological character that visits the homes of children on Christmas Eve, delivering presents to all the good boys and girls. He comes through the chimney with his bright red suit and jolly big belly to place presents under the Christmas tree, and departs from the roof on his sled pulled by eight reindeer. Whether you believe in Santa Claus and his North Pole toy workshop filled with elves or not, Santa is certainly a beloved tradition adored by children and adults alike.
