Santa Clause
Next important feature is a Santa Clause. When we hear his name , we can image an old man with red clothes and a long white beard. Children believe he brings them presents at Christmas. Actually first presents observe what things their children want to get and after that they buy them and put into the sock and hung children’s bed secretly.
